: Hi, in my current collection I'm keeping: 4 corn snakes, and 2 red sided garter snakes and 2 Common garter snakes.
: If I wanted to could I keep 2 garter snakes( same or not same sex)in the same terrarium????

: Sorry, if my English isn't good I'm from portugal!!!
: Please answer me as soon as YOU can!!!!!!!!!

Hi Joao:
Your English is fine and very clear. On to your question; Though it is better to keep snakes separately for easy observation and monitoring, if the habitat is big enough, I see nothing wrong with keeping two Garters together in the same tank. You just have to keep an eye on them when feeding them. Good Luck!!!
