    not that i'm aware of. For this particular species of coastal this is their normal colouration and they even have red blotching on it's ventral scales. I could be wrong and normally am lol.

    Flame morph is an eastern garter snake. Coast garters vary a lot in pattern, amount and shade of red, and distribution of the red coloring. The only place I've ever found them is right on the beach (hundreds of them) so they are certainly named appropriately.

    Thanks Richard, I am aware that flames are easterns, I'm just not familiar with coast garters and they're color variations.
