Re: Garter Snake Sorority?

Welcome! Many garter keepers keep same-sex groups of garters together, including males. The Thamnophis forum is a great resource.

I keep two female garters together and they’re often in the same hide together. Make sure they’re of similar size and always, always be careful when you feed them. They will go after the same piece of food and one may end up eating the other! I’ve broken up one such scenario very early in the process.

I tong feed my snakes individually but in the same tank. I always watch like a hawk.

A few garter species are known for being cannibalistic, although it’s always a possibility regardless of the species, so do your research.

Good luck!
