    Gosh, I don't know.... She doesn't look....right for being gravid. Did you breed her a lot? Did you see anything: ovulation, bowl wrapping, etc? She just doesn't look like she has eggs going down her body.
    Have you palpated her?

    Re: Is she preggo?...your opinion?

    april 29 is the last time she ate. she has poo'd already also. she weighs 1697 grams and is around 3 years old. she was in a lock three times a few months ago. she hasnt done any bowl wrapping that i know of. i have felt her but i cant tell because this is our first snake to try and breed. her first lock was 5/08.

    Could she just have like 1 or 2 eggs in there since this is her first time? What else would cause that?

    I don't know. Here's hoping there is an egg or 2 in there!

    If she's not preggo, I'd be a bit concerned what the lump is since she hasn't eaten in so long.

    its hard to say for sure but it looks like she is building follicles. You should see an ovulation soon.
    For comparison here is a picture of a my 1600g female ovulating. She laid 3 eggs and one slug.

    well i put them back together and they are locking up again still. she looks like the lump is longer now than before so I think she might be gravid
