Wow. Thats cool. Looks like vagrans.

Pretty pickeringii

female

Lol Thanks!

I had a wild caught eastern garter give birth to a T+ Amel. She has eaten and this is the beginning of a new strain

Go back to fuzzies
Try rodent pro or american rodent supply(ars) they are close to you

Agree with it being radix, maybe a male. Its probably a wild caught. A female at this time of year would be huge in the back end with babies

Yes...unfertilized eggs are normal when they dont breed

A lot of people specialize, focus on one species. Garters arent just garters...theres 20 plus species plus morphs. People like Eddy and Tommy radix who focus on one species, like many hobbiest do,...

Yes that does help. Thats puts you in the range of the northwestern garter(Thamnophis ordinoides)
The other garter species in that range are pickeringii and maybe fitchi...not 100% on that so i...

Location helps when you want an id of species, theres 20+
Looks like a northwestern in the picture you posted. Thats my guess

Eastern. Thamnophis sirtalis sirtalis

Im hoping to do a display cage for my garters when theyre adults

Oh yes...lots of projects. Every year is bigger then the last. But no Thams

Cool, so you've bred alot of vagrans?

Don Belnap is selling a pair of 2018 het melanistic babies right now...go buy them

They havent reproduced well for many people. Its been hit or miss. Ive seen lots of babies been then those babies have to be successfull...plus with their popularity not that great...so its a...

Try cut up earthworms with cut up pinkies mixed together. Fish are nothing but trouble

I agree with Eddie....and Steve

??

And like you, i also thought they had a pattern that looked like tetratenia...which are "striped" lol, anyways if you could have that pattern in a red albino form you'll have one awesome looking...

They seem to have small litters. A dozen seems average. The babies are also larger then the average thamnophis baby. Keeping them incorrectly seems to be what has kept this species from being...

I called them "Striped" if you look at the picture on scotts website thats exactly how it looked...striped. The reduction of the pattern formed a stripe.

Scott got the "aztec" from me. Thats not what i called them so who cares what Scott called them

Sounds like your pearl morph could be an incomplete dominate trait
