Hi Guys , Just a gentle reminder to any members who may be breeding their Garters for the first time this year.....Adult Garters can sometimes eat the newborns from their cage-mates, the culprits are usually (but not always) males. Checkereds are known for this form of cannibalism, but other species may do it too.

A friend of mine had three gravid Checkereds, all housed together, result; three very well fed snakes and no babies. If you can, separate your gravid females and house them on their own.
