My beautiful eastern black neck garter courtesy of Albert! Got him this morning and man....he took my breath away!
Still needs a name. Thinking of something romantic (not romeo) due to the holiday!

Wow! What a beauty!
How about Sir Galant? He looks really galant, with that stripe down his back.

Welcome to the water snake world. You will enjoy him, I suggest giving him a enclosure as realistic as possible if you want to enjoy their true nature and clown like behavior.

Wow Mink, that's one amazing looking critter. That orange stripe is off the charts! You should name him Fabio. Didn't he used to make the ladies swoon? :)

As for a name how about Cyrano, in honor of Steve martins portrayal of the love sick character from the play. I feel Steve Martin and garters have quite a bit in common in the character department.

Lol, Meso.
I'm thinking Armani actually. And if he gets a gf in the future, sje can be Goochie haha.
He is a ways off from a permanent set up though. He (should be) the last snake for a while as all my savings will be going towards PVC enclosures.
Also, I was stunned at how amazing he looks! No offence Albert, but your pics couldn't touch how awesome he is in person! Lol.

No Mink! You have to name him Fabio. Have you seen this dude's hair? :)

LOL! Yes, I know Fabio! He also had his beautiful nose broken by a goose while riding in a roller coaster. Lol

LOL, I didn't know about the goose and the broken nose. I figured you were too young to even know he was Mink. You are wise beyond your years ;).

If 30 isn't young anymore I must be ancient at 51 :). Any breeding plans for your garter(s) Mink?

Good to see he arrived to you in great shape Mink! He's already missed around here although I'm glad he's in good hands. He does have a shy personality until it's time to eat. Lol. Enjoy him.

Hats off to you again AL on another stunning critter you've produced. I can't remember if I saw your garter clutch.

Pretty! I'm always tempted by the garters.

Yes. I will be on the look out for a female. Also wanting a pair of neon blue cali red sided. So far he's pretty neat. Depending on how things go and how much I see him out and about, e may be moved to my bedroom for regular viewing haha. As usual he is doing what most snakes do best, and that is hiding haha.
Also, he is officially dubbed Armani and his future gf will be Chenelle. =)
