Re: Housing question
The reason was so I can house Snakey and Blade together for their date. I want to put them in the 10gal. Plus Fish Bait is so used to having tank mates, if I have him all by himself he will be lonely. My 5gal is really tough to clean and the ventilation is not all that great either.

Re: Housing question
Oh. Good reasons!
But I still don't think it's worth the risk. Imagine how you'd feel if seething did happen

Re: Housing question
To be upfront with you I'm violating the very advice I just gave you. My lone surviving Northwestern baby is living with adult Northwesterns.
I'm hoping I can get away with it for awhile longer. Until this baby becomes a longterm eater. Moving all its siblings to a different enclosure proved to be too stressful for them and they died.
I hope to only have this baby in there of another couple of weeks. Then she will be moved.

Re: Housing question
So as long as I keep a very close eye on him, and bathe him after eating do you think a month would be ok. That's about how long I'm think it will take for Blade and Snakey to do their thing.

Re: Housing question
It's like with anything. It's probably fine. But on the slim chance it isn't, it's not worth the risk. Cause the RISK IS there.

Re: Housing question
If we have a glance at our main paragon, the nature, we see, that babies and adults mostly live apart.
Garter Snakes are quiet sociable as snakes, but hunting and feeding is still a very personal thing for them too.
Based on the canibalism that occurs sometimes, when gravid females share an enclosure with theirs hubbies,
I would guess that small snakes have prey issues without smelling like fish!

Re: Housing question
Mama and Anakey were together through her most ravenous gravid months, only to be taken out when she was very close to give birth. She didn't try eating him at all, until after when I was attempting to get him to get all of his breeding energy out. She grabbed him while he was eating, the worm got all over him, so he was scented like food.

Re: Housing question
A nakey Snakey.
I'm withdrawaling, so I'm not paying any attention to spelling at all.
His nick name is "Nakey" because my niece and nephew can't say "snakey"
So, it technically A Nakey works.
