I agree that it looks Female from the pic. However, with regards to being sexed by an experienced breeder, they make mistakes. I’ve got 7 Garters from 4 different breeders and all four breeders erred. Usually the error is sexing a male as a female, but I’ve got a male checkered that turned out to be female.

Appreciate it. But why do you think about the safety of those two snakes living together given their size difference? They’ve both grown a little since the post. Thanks.

That's tricky. Based on the picture, I would personally keep them separated until they were closer in size. And even then, you'd want to monitor based on their individual feeding response.

Thank you! That helps.
