The Checkered Garter Snake is longer than some other species of garter snake and can reach about three feet in length. They can range in color from tan to a darker tannish-brown, brown, or olive. They are called "checkered" garter snakes because they have black-checkered patterns on their sides and bellies. The black checks are usually on green or sometimes yellow.
