    Giving birth

    Hi, new here. I have a garter that is giving birth, so far there's just been a slug and two stillborns.

    Hopefully some of them will be alive. I've bred garters in the past, I'm worried about this one though, since so far they're not moving.

    Re: Giving birth

    One of mine gave birth the other month and for the 1st time had 4 still born and one died from not eating. I think the temperature was slightly out as they came out a lot bigger this time, 9 in all. The other 4 are doing well now eating live fish soon to be moved onto pinky bits. How did your birthing end?

    So far just another slug.

    What are "slugs", anyway? I found a lot of talk of them on this forum, but couldn't find where it explains what they are.
