    Looks like a valley garter to me..thamnophis sirtalis fitchi. Knowing where it was from helps also. I have seen them with various amounts of red on the head....

    That seems to be the popular vote. I got her from the petstore, so I have no idea where she is from. The other garters in the petstore with her weren't nearly as colorful as she is. They were just black and brown with white stripes. I dunno if that will help, but thats all I got lol

    Hmmmmm.....kind of hard to tell......either T.s.parietalis or T.s.fitchi? Head seems a bit light for a T.s.fitchi, the top of the heads on them usually seem to be darker......leaning more towards T.s.parietalis...especially since it came from a pet store. Don't remember the last time I saw a T.s.fitchi for sale at a pet store, but they seem to have quite a few T.s.parietalis.
