I was wondering about one thing though referring to the pictures is it just that the pictures are dark or is the snake dark because the pattern looks the same as a red sides just in her last picture it almost looks black or black actually not really sure if its just me.

Re: ^-^ Mishka my new red sided garter snake ^-^
If they don't sell it here then I can always have a look on eBay. I think I'll treat her either way to be on the safe side.

Thank you for the advice and help

Re: ^-^ Mishka my new red sided garter snake ^-^
If your in England, it might go by the name "polysporin". When I was with my ex, that was what he always had instead of neosporin. It's the same thing really, antibacterial stuff.

Right...polysporin..I have heard of people mention that. Try looking for that too. Yes, treating her with one of those medications that we mentioned will not hurt anything...but we will get a better look at your pics tomorrow. Anyway we can help...that is what we are here for...

I agree.....I doubt any valley garters made it over there yet... the more northern red sided garters are darker with minimal red spots.

Welcome from a dull and uninspiring North Lincolnshire (I don't really live in the arse end of nowhere, up here for work for a few days).
I've noticed had to get anything lie bactrin yet, so haven't crossed that bridge, I think the good stuff you may need to get from a vet rather than over the counter.ChrisT. marcianus, T. e. cuitzeoensis, T. cyrtopsis, T. radix, T. s. infernalis, T. s. tetrataenia

Re: ^-^ Mishka my new red sided garter snake ^-^
What a little beauty!
My eastern, Abby also likes to burrow thru my ponytail and then rest her head on the sidepiece of my glasses. This wasn't a problem when she was less than 20 inches long, but now that she's over 30 inches long she knocks the glasses right off my nose!
Last time she was out riding in my hair she finally curled her tail around my collar, burrowed thru my hair and surveyed the world from the top of my head, like the Uraeus on a Pharoahs crown.
