Hi Everyone,

This is my first post, so here we go:

I have been keeping Garters for a few years now nut never really got into it past just caring for them and having one as a pet.

The other day, I caught an XXL Garter which I have caught before but let go. I really like her because she is so big and calm. My question is, first, are Garters generally calmer when they are pregnant? I think she may be pregnant because she is so fat and isn't eating (assuming that she is a she). I would like to keep her, but not if she will become less calm after having babies.

Any ideas?


Also, have another garter which is a lot smaller (normal size) and I would like to put the two together. My question is is, will the larger one (because she is so big) be tempted to fight with and/or eat the smaller one?

Here are some pics of the XXL Garter, do you think she is pregnant?

She is a little over 3ft long:
