New addition to the family

[Allthingswithscales]

Hey guys! my growing collection was just blessed with yet another addition. I'll try to upload some pictures soon, hopefully of the full collection. The new one just arrived today and is a common garter snake AKA Thamophis Sirtalis. I've named him "Apophis" after the Egyptian serpent deity he's currently about 18 inches long. He's healthy, active, curious and beautiful as well as surprisingly gentle for being handled by me for the first time when I put him in his habitat. The place I ordered him from most likely pre-socialized him. He'll eat nightcrawlers, guppies and the occasional pinky mouse.
