Wow, what a story !!!
Glad she made it.
Never knew that mouth to mouth could be usefull to snakes as well.
We never had any problem like this, but than again we never had any sheddingproblems as well.
I think when you soak a garter you should always stay nearby to keep a close eye on it.
Maybe your garter did get stressed, Ryan. But good job you rescued it !
