Firstly, let me explain the situation, because its a bit weird.


This past year I have been living in Germany with my boyfriend, so I left my Garters in the care of my family. My sister went in to clean, feed etc while i was unavailble. In this time I had one tank in which i housed 3 snakes 1 female Infernalis, 1 female eastern black neck and 1 presumed female oregon red spot. They have been housed like this for a good few years with no problems, no mating or anything.


I have now been back in England a month and have been able to see my snake again. Now, the oregon red spotted passed away a few weeks before my return, my sis said it went off it food for no apparent reason and lost weight rather quickly. Note that the other 2 snakes housed in the same tank are fine.

Ok, now onto the title of thread. My infernalis has had babies, 2 very nice live one, 3 stillborn and 3-4 jelly beans. All babies look exactly like her. The only question is, the father. I am presuming the red spotted that died was actually a male and not a female like i thought/was told when i got them. The blackneck is a definite female as i checked today after seeing the babies.

Its just weird how theyd been kept togther for so long and nothing like this has ever happened before.

anyhow enough blabbing. I'll just be happy that ive got 2 gorgeous babies to care for now
