Breeding in watersnakes is much the same as in gartersnakes. Keep the female fed unless she refuses food on her own. Typically in late July or sometime in August, she will give birth to around 10 live babies. She may give birth to more than 10. The babies will be ready to survive on their own from birth and will eat small fish or tadpoles from their water bowl. If your watersnakes are from a site nearby, it may be best to release the babies you don't want to keep.
