    Is this normal?
    Hey Ya'll, For the last two weeks, My female which has been building, has wrapped up her food but refused to eat it. I'm concerned due to the fact that I have read many times that during building she should be eating ravenously and she's not. She hasn't been losing weight and she hasn't been interested in mating with the male in a couple of weeks now. How can I tell what is going on with her? I haven't noticed an ovulation but I did palpate using a pillowcase over my hand and felt 6 follicles about 2 weeks ago. here's a pic of her a just took.

    Thats strange.
    When was her last actual feed?
    Is she already gravid? She could just be agrivated by the prey and killing out of defence not hunger(if she is gravid)
    But im no expert yet*
    So hope someone chimes in with more exp.

    I usually feed on Sundays. I fed all my snakes a day early this week since a was at the pet store to get crickets anyway. She refused last Sunday and again Yesterday(Saturday). So, it's been two weeks since she last ate. She has locked up multiple times since November.

    This sounds about the same as mine. 2 of my females havent eaten in almost 2 months and they have locked a few times as well. I believe they are gravid and have all the signs. Maybe yours is too. Hopefully. Goodluck.
