I have a pregnant female. Can I put my other non-pregnant females in with her? She is very early into pregnancy, she just absorbed the sperm plug 2 days ago.

They are not just snakes. They're garter snakes.

Re: Keeping Garter Snakes Together
I would keep her separate personally, so she doesn't get stressed.

Re: Keeping Garter Snakes Together
Personally I do not see any objections. My pregnant females have never been separated from the other snakes. Never was under the impression that it was stressful for them.

Re: Keeping Garter Snakes Together
They're going into brumation soon anyway (the pregnant female isn't though don't wanna kill her). I'll probably find an extra 10G lying around that they can slither around in until they go into brumation, allowing me to make some space for them in the spring.

Re: Keeping Garter Snakes Together
She is doing fine right now! She has her own tank. She will be put into brumation once the other snakes come out of brumation (Valentines day) and come out on my birthday (May 28th). While she is brumating, her tank will be used to breed my Easterns.
