A garter was definitely the first snake I ever touched, handled, etc... but I never considered them as a possible pet for me because I wanted something I couldn't find in the woods behind my house. Garters like yours I definitely won't be finding in the woods near here though, hahaha!! I still don't see one in my near future because there are others I want to add first, but they are beautiful animals and yours are some stunning examples. My eyes are open to them now, so maybe someday...
Thanks for sharing!
