Okay so this morning my little Flame is laying on top of the 16 mo old Red Spotted Garter....

At first I thought "That is so cute" then realized...."Wait! What are they doing?" (I thought they were both males).

So what happens now? She is only 16 months old, will the breeding take? Or is she too young? How long is the gestation? If she is pregnant will the litter be small due to her small size and young age?

Obviously I am separating them. If she is pregnant this creates an ugly situation that I am not looking forward to dealing with.
