    Re: New, with first Garter!

    How sweet! And so small! Lol. Well done for choosing such a lovely baby! As the others have said, crickets are bad news - at least your little one has got a good home now! Welcome to the forum.

    Re: New, with first Garter!

    Thanks again everyone! Once I'm able to, I plan to go get one of her siblings if they're still available.

    Speaking of which, I have yet another question. Should I spring for another female? IF they're going to live together, I'm guessing brothers and sisters don't see each other as just family, and I don't want any babies. And will I have to introduce them on a neutral territory before just letting them live together?

    Yes to another female and no they don't need to be introduced on neutral territory before being introduced

    idk.... my baby boy (now 2 yrs) has never shown any intrest in his mom..... he has never been away from her for more than a week..... ever..... and that was when he escaped..... but I wouldn't really mind if he did..... so it really isn't realy a problem.... he just lives with his mom and his sister..... and hopefully his niece within the next few years my big female has always been great with new snakes..... especially babies...... even baby milks and browns!!!!! she's just a great mom
