Ok I go to my neighbors(snake central) alot because they used to kill them but i talked them out of their ways, they don't usually kill the snakes anymore but they have me remove them, so this time i got to pregnant eastern garters! One is a green fase and the other is a rusty red color, any tips?!?!?THIS IS MY FIRST TIME WITH PREGNANT GARTERS!!!!!!!!1

Get ready for babies. You're into it now.
If it were me I'd separate the two females and get them comfortable. Less stress to them and the babies. Get a couple containers ready for babies.
Now, you can keep and raise or release them when they are born.
Best of luck, keep us posted on your progress, Dad to be!

thanks for the advice i think I'll release most of the babies and keep some maybe they're both in a estimated 20 gallon that i made for now but the bigger of the two is going into a big tub as soon as i get a chance to go to walmart.

Il be filling out a chart and keeping you guys updated as much as i can.As of now....
Day 1:Smaller of the two has taken an earthworm 20 minutes after capture.

That one looks like she could go at anytime.
You better get to Walmart, NOW

Have a luke warm bath ready for the babies. This way that first shed will be easier for them to get off. I love helping babies with that first shed.
Watch for babies that are having trouble getting out of the egg sack.
Best of luck.

I might add that it's a good idea to avoid dry newsprint or similar material when expecting. It tends to suck the moisture out of the membranes and cause the babies to get stuck and die. Maintain a good humidity level and a moist hide or section of the tank for them when they arrive. An area of crumpled, WET newsprint or paper towels works well. In any case it's recommended that the babies be moved to their own container right away, to avoid problems such as getting mooshed by momma, and give them a light misting a couple of times a day.
