Babies, Babies, Babies

Good that some are eating! I started mine on little worms, they seem to be an easily accepted first food. I'm looking forward to watching updates as they all grow up!

You'll get up dates probably to the point you'll get sick of hearing about them. I'm excited because my little girl is watching this cycle. She found this little baby snake and cared for it, it became attached to her as well as her to it. Now she gets to take care of its babies. I asked her the other day how it felt to be Grandma since her baby has had babies. She just laughs and gives me a big hug.

Not sure what's going on. Our girl Lucky has apparently decided that her recovery time will be spent with me. My daughter Gabby will get her out to check on her and if I am anywhere near she will try to get to me. Tonight Gabby brought her over to me since she wouldn't calm down while me were watching a movie. As soon as I held her she went into the sleeve of my sweatshirt. She stayed there even after I sat down to watch the movie. She then moved across my chest into the other sleeve. Then up to my shoulder where she stuck her head out and relaxed. I've never had such a calm and trusting snake before. No startle response. No fear being with us or our dogs. I can't explain it but don't need to understand it either.

you've inspired me.Im in grade 6 and found 2 young garters i am not sure of the kind and was just gonna keep them over the winter but now i want to get the full experience so i think i will keep them as long as i can they are very small and dont really eat that much but i ws wondering if i would have to bramate them?
it wouldnt really be any trouble but there in my classroom right now and i live in central bc canada so is it to late to start or should i even start

Welcome.

If you can keep them eating, there is no reason to brumate them.

thats the problem i was gone to a hockey tournament and asked my buddy to feed them and he says he saw them eat it seems that they have eating patterns theyll at lots but then theyll go with out for quite a while right now there probably eating 10 worms a week each
