Hey all,

I was walking outside when I heard a distrubance near some vine ground covering. I, of course, had to investigate and found a gravid garter snake! It looked pretty chunky compared to my other one, and after looking at some gravid snake pics on here, I'm pretty sure the one I caught is pregnant. After reading a particular thread, I'm guessing it has about two weeks to go...

Anyway, when I found it, its cloaca looked enlarged and pink/red. I put it in an aquarium with a basic setup. Can anyone refer me to any sites or give me info on pregnant garters? I'd appreciate it. Thanks!
