Snoopin' around the yard............

Postby pathigdon on April 12th, 2010, 9:15 pm

Well, was doin a little at home herp hunting and found this beautiful lady. The pics don't show her size very well, but she is the biggest Gartersnake I have ever seen. I have seen/caught alot of Garters, and this one is the biggest and prettiest of all of them.

Nathan if you want her, she's yours. If you are not at the meeting thursday and no one else claims her, she is getting released on friday. But if she does drop babies on you, I get half of them. I would like to release some around our house and feed barns and such.

Not sure how everyone has there pages layed out. But, the second picture is pretty darn close to here actual size. She is a big girl.

Guessing Texas, or Texas/Red-sided mix. She has ALOT of red on her. She is absolutely beautiful. I hate to not keep her, but I am not taking in anymore animals at the moment.

She's beatiful Pat! Drive her down to Texas and I'll take her! ;)

And yes, she looks to be a Texas garter...

She wants to come home!!! :D
