And I only wanted to make the ONE post, and leave it at that.
But since you were wondering if I even knew that Garter snakes
gave birth to live young(ovoviviparous), the answer would be obviously....yes.
Actually, I was wondering if someone would pick-up on that!....
...GOOD CALL!
But in EITHER case, the outcome would STILL be a useless pile of afterbirth!, even if the non-compatible combination DID produce some live neonates.
Don't worry folks, I'm not going to "haunt" this forum, and make alot of nasty comments, I just wanted to clarify that I do indeed know that Garter Snakes are live-bearing, in addition to a few other things regarding snakes.
best regards, ~Doug
