• Responding to email notices you receive.
    **************************************************
    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

try to find a bigger tank and put them all together if they are from the same mother and if they sell crickets at your stores then try and cutting them in half thats what i had to do with my 12 baby garters but it mostly depends on the size of the snake
The original post was made 08-05-2005. I doubt they're still in need of smaller prey.

Isn't there a chance of cannibalism though?
Yes, but I have had ribbons and garters kill each other fighting over fish at that age more often. Also the more dominant ones will eat everything first.
Babies can easily be separated and kept in deli cups for a long time. The survival rate compared to housing together is dramatically different.
Housing separately you should have 100% survive.
