Also, if you were having to supplement vitamin B for your garters (were you exclusively feeding fish?.....) that means you were feeding them fish rich in thiaminase, which is a known issue and those species of fish should be avoided.

It's also not easy to just 'put vitamins back' when you don't know the actual quantity in milligrams, or rather, micrograms lost (this will vary by species and by length of time frozen and even by individual) and you don't know the required dosages for those vitamins and minerals for a corn snake. You would be blindly guessing, and very likely overdosing your snake. Which leads to health problems.
