Something Happening..... OR Not

About 3 weeks ago I palpitated my big normal girl. Felt some small follicles, maybe 20/25mm. I looked in on the snakes about an hour ago, and found this. She is looking very lumpy, even though curled in a circle. She is also curled squarely on the heatpad. What do the esteemed members of the forum think. Something happening.... Or Not? https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...bfc01f8cd6.jpg

Wow, is it just me and is that an unorthodox way to hold a snake?

She's pregnant?

I cannot tell from the photos, but may I ask, why are you breeding a normal ball python? There are 100s of 1000s already on the earth, many in captivity that are practically unwanted, since there are so many exciting morphs to choose from by human captors these days. Just curious, what are your plans for this animal?

Sonny: Nothing wrong with holding the snake that way for a short time. It won't hurt them one bit.

@ Sonny1318: I only held her like that for less than 30 seconds to take the pic.

@ Godzilla78: I bred a Pastave Male to her. I sell normal babies here at the Expos in South Africa to beginner keepers.
I am not in the market to make money, I spread interest in the hobby.
So a beginner buys a normal baby for, in your money 20 Dollars, and I have helped someone gain an interest in reptiles.
I hope my answer makes sense.
At the expo we held in May of this year, I sold no less than 16 normals at 20 Dollars each.
This netted me 320 Dollars, and I am happy.
Back to the question, do you think she may be gravid, I value your opinion.

@Mr. Snakes: Thank You

Bump. Any Breeders who can help answer the OP’s question?

Thanks Calm Pythons

I reckon she has answered the question for us. Does anyone agree that she is gravid. Photo taken half an hour ago. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...885cf3f1ba.jpg

Question for Deb most certainly.
