Just wanted to let you guys know that my WC garter decided that she was done brumating. If you remember she had decided that she needed to burrow into the coldest spot she could find in her enclosure and brumate herself. That lasted for almost 3 months and I was really worried about her not eating. Well a couple of weeks ago I noticed that she was out on top of the substrate in the warm area for a couple of days so I put some fish in her bowl. She's been eating and pooping well ever since and is just starting a shed cycle. I'm a very happy garter momma! I feel like I've been through everything to get and keep her healthy, learning as I go, so am very thankfull every time we clear another hurdle!!!
