I will try and dig up the thread about the mom...she's an eastern garter, but such an amazing snake!
Take a deep breath. The mom will do all the work. Delivery time is up to her. Could be quick could take an hour or two. I've had them deliver the last one 24 hours later. Keep the babies warm and give them some water. Sit back and relax. They won't need fed for at least 24-36 hours.
The mom may want to eat right after giving birth and that's never been a problem for any of my mothers. Your not going to mess this up. Garter are tought as nails.
