Baby garter advice (pic included)

[Zephyr]

You may want to get some larger guppies or some worms. From experience, motion along with smell motivates eating responses fairly quickly.

Very pretty little snake you have there

That is a beautiful snake!
And don't worry about the food too much, she'll eat when she settles in. Just keep trying different things every few days, until something sparks her interest. My garter Deejay wouldn't touch guppies at all, but she loved small worms, and now that she's grown she eats everything.........right out of my hand.

if she was still around her mother, then she was literally just born when you found them all. they don't really nest, the mom gives birth and the babies make their way off on their own. baby garters shed right after they are born, and then you will see another shed sometime soon. Sometimes it takes them a few days to eat, maybe even over a week. make sure that she has a place to hide where it is also warm, and try leaving a fish or two in the water bowl and leaving her in the cage undisturbed for a day or two.

oh yes, and as james mentioned, you have a Radix, commonly known as the Plains Garter
