Did it just eat? I am not an expert at all but that is either a just fed something or a prego mommy.... :confused:

The angle of the first one appears to be a male, but not 100% sure. The second definately a female

[adamanteus]

I would say female.

[GartersRock]

Well, we don't know how old she is... I would be shocked to see a male of that body type.

[brigitte]

is that maybe the reason she wont eat?

[EdgyExoticReptiles]

if she is gravid then yes, just wondering, how long is she?

[brigitte]

Nevermind... must have been a temporary thing :confused:

Here's hoping for more babies :)

[Snake lover 3-25]

[Zephyr]

Possibly gravid; wouldn't be a large litter.

[Snake lover 3-25]

Possibly gravid; wouldn't be a large litter.

[anji1971]

[Snake lover 3-25]

[EdgyExoticReptiles]

[Snake lover 3-25]

yeah... very true... but that's alot for a mother who was about 60 whan caught!!!!:eek: so 14 grams is about 3.5 babies!!!:D:D

JC, my adult female garter, turned out to have been pregnant when I got her. I got her at the end of May, beginning of June a year ago. She didn't eat anything at all from the day I got her until August 3, after having 20 babies on August 2! She only shed once before the litter was born, that shed was about a week after I first got her, not close to the time of the birth at all!
