    hey there, I would say brumate your male and female before you attempt breeding them. It'll greatly increase your chance of a successful breeding and can help increase fertility rates and clutch size.

    for more information on how to go about breeding your garters I would look under the Breeding forum... useful stuff in there.

    Good advice. I have always found radix to be one of the easiest to breed..... you just need a pair in the same county and bingo!

    I've had a few successful matings without brumation, but as stated, it does increase your chances.
