turtlesandtombstones, I see some of the differences now. I have never seen a baby garter so young! Still a great find. Thanks for putting up with my inquiry. :-)

I have a Dekay's brown that's around the same size about 10 spottings back if you'd like to compare the pictures.

I second Storeria dekayi. Great little snake!

Perhaps this might be Storeria dekayi? Color pattern looks correct. Really cute and beautiful little snake.
