    Twice I was wrong, this time I am right! and I have babies! :D

    Well I'm super excited one of my 4 gravid garters gave birth 2 hours ago. Twice I posted pics about different garters and me thinking they were gravid....well now let me tell you I know what a gravid garter looks like now lol, there's no mistake about this one. They are just common easter garters Tham sirtalis sirtalis but I love them and it's my very first litter of snakes ever! She gave birth to 22 babies and ALL are alive and well

    thanks, this is an experience I've wanted to have my whole life and finally today is that day. Now the mother is wild caught from 5 minutes from my house and the babies I may put in the wild since it's illegal for me to even give them away free as pets I tried posting ad and it keeps getting deleted on kijiji. I don't want money for them. I just want them to either go to a good home or in the wild before it's too late . They are so cute I just want to keep them all lol

    thanks for reminding me I was just about to ask about that. She seems really restless and won't stop pacing around the tank constantly.

    congrats i had the same experience today myself, although its not the first experience of this kind for me but it's many years since i allow my garters to breed so it feels like the first time . the negative is that my kids have left school so it will not be so easy to find local kids to encourage to get into snakes but the positive is any i don't give away i can sell to the pet shop to affray expenses
    ​I'm not actually a gynecologist...but i'll take a look.
