Re: Agressive snake
Gravid or not, until they trust you they will be defensive.
I do think being gravid might make her more uncomfortable/wary than normal.
Be patience

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

Re: Agressive snake
Idk, sometimes pregnant garters can be a little cranky.

Re: Agressive snake
The only time I heard a garter hiss was when my last Florida Blue girl was gravid, she was an absolute softie at all other times. They definately want to be left alone and I could see how they would be a lot more defensive.

Re: Agressive snake
Sometimes I want to bite and I'm not even pregnant anymore! One of my WC females tags me everytime. She did it again last night when I cleaned their home.

Somehow, yelling "cat fight" just doesn't seem to fit. Originally Posted by Mommy2many
