hmmm....idk... it did seem to have ALOT of intrest in my female... too much to be a female if you ask me... and it lined up right with her... then it's entire body started pulsing...???? IDK what that means... but it looked alot like mating...

i want babies....

the behaviour certainly sounds like mating
he's a gorgeous snake btw
the orange under his throat with that dark body - very nice find

if it liked up with your female and started "pulsing" it is almost definately a male.

or a highly confuse female.

need more pics.. still wouldn't have put it with the female till it was safe.. but hay damage may already be done..

even in the likely chance it was male i still wouldn't rush things.. the best things in life are meant to be waited for.. I would have waited and quarantined it..

My garter i found in the wild because my cat was trying to kill it took it up to 6-7 months before the parasites took it's life.. so there is a reason we tell you this and not just look the other way..

i agree i had got WC garter and it took 2 1/2 months for the parasites to show, but luckily i got rid of them

That's a really nice snake you've found, Shanley!

But I also agree you should have quarantined it first. Parasites are sneaky little devils, and can show up weeks after you've found a new snake. Hopefully everything will work out for you!

Yeah... as soon as i came back down and read those posts i took him out... but i've never quarentined them before and i dont know when they're safe or how long to keep them away from the others.....

Also could he have given her parasites from just a few minuites of interaction??????
