    I got rid of the hot rock. I unplugged it and they seemed to do just fine. They are all still really active and are feeding like crazy! We are all truly fascinated by this event! I can't wait to see the little ones grow. They already seem to be developing their own personalities.

    Don't know if you have a local Craigslist.com but it's a good place to find a heat mat at a good price. I picked up an extra large mat for $5 the other day. Babies love that extra heat.
    Good luck with the little scrubs.

    They are not just snakes. They're garter snakes.

    Re: Snake had babies

    Welcome! You're new babies are simply adorable! I second the motion of releasing some. If you take them back to where you found mom they should be fine. 38 adults is a lot to care for and releasing them will not really be an option later.
