Posted by: asnakelovinbabe at Fri May 7 00:08:28 2010 [ Report Abuse ] [ Email Message ] [ Show All Posts by asnakelovinbabe ] What species of garter snake are these? The wild snake most likely had nothing to do with one snake biting the other... usually it's that one snake smells food on the other and just grabs! Some species, like Wandering Garter Snakes, thamnophis elegans vagrans, are known to be cannibalistic. The wild one should have never been in with the captive bred ones though. No telling what parasites or diseases it may have been carrying...and with the other snakes being captive bred they are extremely susceptible to that. I don't think the wild snake had anything to do with your snakes attacking each other... I've only ever seen mine do that out of a feeding response. Feed them separately... it may be best to separate them completely if they are trying to eat one another. If one snake starts to swallow the other, it will kill both of them.
