Hi

Hi,
I'm new here and I was wondering what type of garter snake morphs are your favorites? I might be getting one soon. Thanks for your input.

Re: Hi

Hi LeapinLeo,

I really like black and red snakes, particularily T.s. concinnus and T.s. infernalis. Since we can't own T.s. tetrataenia in the U.S., I try not to think about them too much. Like James said, though, there aren't a whole lot of Thamnophis that I don't like.

Re: Hi

Welcome to the forum, Leo
That's the biggest drawback about being into Garters. There so many beautiful ones, it's really quite a dilemma . . .

Re: Hi

Welcome Leapingleo. I have both Thamnophis sirtalis sirtalis (Eastern Garter) and Thamnophis sirtalis concinnus Oregon-Red spotted. I love them both, but the Red-spotted of mine are easier to handle and accept a more varied diet much more readily than do the Easterns.

Re: Hi

In this moment I think my Thamnophis hammondii are the most beautiful.
But next week... who knows.
