Fascinating! I love it! I used to look at T.e.vagrans as just an ugly old garter snake. Now I am seeing their beauty in a whole new way. I now have W/C (plain)Jane, Blacky, and checkers and they could be completely different snakes as far as I'm concerned. They look different and they behave differently. I thought that I would have to get snakes from some far away exotic place to really have something to enjoy...who knew I would find such wonder and entertainment right here in my own backyard! Not to mention my T.s. fitchi (no name). I'm having a ball getting to now my new guests.
