Here's a couple of pics of my male melanistic wandering garter from Dan Eby!This has got to be the blackest snake I've ever seen!He's very photogenic,as you can see!!! Thanks again Dan!, Jeff

Gorgeous animal Jeff. So were you just looking for a melanistic wandering garter, or were you considering a melanistic eastern as well? You're putting together a very nice collection of garters.

Handsome!! Black is one of my favorite colors, and a Garter is the only one I would trust.

Most all Black snakes are nasty tempered. So a melanistic garter is like the "holy grail" of black snakes
