    Eastern Garter Snake

    Found this little girl on a horse farm today under a pasture gate. She was just chilling in the dirt, and didnt try very hard to get away, so i caught her and let her calm down in my hands. Didnt even offer to bite, just musked that typical garter musk but she really calmed down quick.

    Ive been wanting a garter for myself for a few summers now, so this girls going to be a keeper. She really is pretty docile... posing for the camera.

    Probably has all sorts of parasites, so if you want to keep it a vet visit would be a good idea..
