I suck (part 1)

Yup, I admit it. I suck at sexing snakes or figuring out which type they are. I know they are garters, but that's where the knowledge ends. So I'm going to the experts on here that have helped me out so much in the past.
I'll post the snakes seperately so I don't confuse myself, then post the others later.



Thanks in advance, you members always come thru for me.
Mike

This one appears to me to be a female.

Re: I suck (part 1)

I'd say it's a female, judging by the general appearance, the size and the shape of the tail.

I'll jump on the female bandwagon as well. As far as type, I'd say it's a T.s.sirtalis.

All you gotta do is look for the lipstick and the clutch purse!
