Hi Garty, I pretty much agree with most of the rest of the posts in brumating the snake. The only thing is I would only do it is it seems to be in good health and good body condition. Check on it throughout brumation, if it starts losing body condition I would take him/her out early and get it on some heat and try to feed it. Also, I've already said this on another thread, but one of my garters will only eat from her hidebox, and only if I do not disturb her.
