    It's good that you are so observant with your snakes. Nice job.

    They are not just snakes. They're garter snakes.

    Thanks!

    Also it's not weird to be able to pinch some skin or move their skin around a little. It's pretty elastic.

    Hmm, maybe I just didn't notice it before. I'll keep an eye out for changes.
