    They are not just snakes. They're garter snakes.

    No wonder my old shallow well is a popular brumation site for the wild garters around my house.

    Re: Losses in Brumation.

    It's a good link... definitely worth posting twice!

    Back to the hunidity theory. Just a note: All my Garters are out of brumation now. The enclosures were furnished with toilet roll tubes and kitchen paper tubes as hides, most of these were damp and speckled with green mold by the end of brumation. All the snakes are clean and free of blisters..... no losses.

    Re: Losses in Brumation.

    At this point there isn't any help from me on "burmation losses" (thank goodness). All mine are out of burmation, healthy and several have mated.

    I did have a minor mite infestation in one group....all taken care of.
