    Would it be possible to find a gravid garter this time of year?

    I was wondering if it'd be possible to find a gravid garter in the wild this time of year?

    It's very possible....they generally breed when they come out of hibernation and then 3 to 4 mmonths later the babies are born.

    Just wanted to "second" Don's comments to show that there's a concensus. There should be a lot of gravid females out there right now.
