Jadis was born almost a year ago when I bred a het for Anery with my orange nose Christmas albino Thamnophis Radix.
The only melanin on this snake at all is her black eyes with red pupils. The only real white is the stripe down her back, I love the ghost pattern where the black spots would have been.
She is also the "alpha" of her litter, I kept all the babies and Jadis has grown the most & the fastest. She also has the biggest appetite, she's nearly ready for whole pinks, after that the real growth spurt starts.

Close up of mother, the black stripes along her upper lip are also ghosted on Jadis.

Snake porn lol. Very cool indeed. Nice pics. I tried to get a few outdoor shots of or gopher snake but she goes under the grass as soon as she hits the ground and can be tough to pull out.

I can relate, I tried to photo my big melanistic boy, as soon as his belly touched the ground he turned back into a wild snake, all he wanted was to escape..

Glad she's eating pinkies now. I really love the stripe down her back :yes:

For contrast, here is her little brother.. Hard to believe they came from the same litter, the only difference between them is the albino gene removed all the black pigment, they both have the same white stripe.

Wayne do you sell babies?
It's hard to find them here since they are native and there's a weird law where you can't buy them in NH but you can buy them from breeders out of state.

Yes I do..;)
To be honest, I prefer not to ship in the winter, I like to ship when the weather is nice enough that if something goes wrong and there is a delay, the snakes live through it.
A friend of mine shipped some garters 2 winters ago, they were delayed, and the snakes were delivered 2 days past the schedule delivery, frozen solid and dead.

That sucks, but I won't be able to get any until April anyway.
When do you feel comfortable shipping?
infernalis

April through october, not much chances of freezing then.

Since I can't find Gaters on the restricted species list, I may want one of your babies too!! (In the future though, not now) becaue....
1) hubby says no more snakes that don't fit into my breeding plans (for a while anyways)
2) I'll wait till I renew my licence and get the enhanced licence so I can drive across the border!!

Wayne I have had a chance over the past week or 2 to go through some of your posts with the pics you have posted . You have some of the most amazing snakes I have ever seen . While I had never considered keeping Garters ,if I ever decide to I would buy from you in a heartbeat. You have some of the most amazing colors and mixes I have ever seen.You have a collection to be proud of for sure .

Not a huge albino man myself, but I do have to say she is beautiful. The black ?iris? around the red pupil is something I have never seen before. Very cool effect. I'm amazed she didn't make a break for it the moment she touched the ground.
Did the two runts make it? (And what do you feed them when they are that small?)

Jadis is now taking whole pinkies, when they were neonates, I fed them chopped up pinkies and fish.
I call it "Garter Goulash" This is the whole litter, she is in there with her siblings. The little runt albino with the tiny head died within two weeks of birth.
The combination of Albino gene and Anery gene (black babies) produced the lone snow.

That all depends on how the dice roll in the spring.

So if I can talk my wife into it I would love to purchase a garter! ( funny how she would not let me get a couple of grass snakes at Christmas but a month later we put a deposit on 6 bci! )
