Garter Snake ID Please
I was sold this as a Red Sided Garter snake a while ago and this looks nothing like my other Red Sided, so please anybody out there that can help ID this little fella.
I think it's a Plains Garter snake (Thamnophis radix) or a Western Terrestrial Garter snake

I'd say it a Ribbon snake.Not sure what species.
HerpNet.net - Iowa Reptiles and Amphibians - Western Ribbon Snake - Thamnophis proximus There are a couple possible specie/Sub'species. Western Ribbon Snake - Thamnophis proximus. Eastern Ribbon Snake - Thamnophis sauritus sauritus. Northern Ribbon Snake - Thamnophis sauritus septentrionalis. PS:-Ribbon snakes are Garter snakes.

Cheers it does look like a Ribbon snake and a Western Plains Garter.
Only problem it was ordered as a Red Sided Garter and that it definitely isn't !
