Gravid or not...that is the question!
Well, I have given up trying to make sure. Don't want to stress her. She followed all the typical behaviors. Although I never saw ovulation, might have missed it. She looks very full for not having eaten in a while, though. Tomorrow is 28 days since the last shed. Incubator is running...just in case.
Isn't she a pretty snake though. She was my first morph and is just the nicest snake. Always has been. And still so pretty at going on 7 years old.

Same situation, I think I missed ovulation cause shes looking huge now and she shed 20 days ago. I think mines actually a bumble belly, but close enough lol. Good luck with her, I hope she goes for you.
That is a funny coincidence, LOL!!
What did you breed your girl to?

Male is a pastel enchi. They will make a lot of morph possibilities but only a few I would consider holding back. Unfortunately this wasn't super planned out, they were basically just my first two ready to go and I figured it couldn't hurt to get some experience and make sure I enjoy the whole process before I get too crazy with my breeding plans, too late for that, I'm up to 10 females lol. But I'm still glad I did it because I am enjoying the process and getting some experience. I will be waiting a while for most of my other females to be ready. I'm hoping to have at least 2 more ready for next year if they stay on track with feeding.
Which male did you use for your pairing?

That sounds like a nice breeding !!!
One of the females I'm breeding (I'm breeding 3) is a pastel Enchi, too..hehe. That is the one that has been on track, not eating for a while either, then suddenly she showed feeding response and actually took a md. rat yesterday. They are all driving me insane..haha
Breeding was never a priority for me, I just wanted to try it this year, for the excitement !!
The male I'm using for all 3 girls (Bumblebee, Pastel Enchi, Pastel Lesser) is a Super Blast !

I was doing some cage maintenance tonight and picked up Maja, the bumble bee and for the first time I did notice a huge bulge. It wasn't hard like ovulation. But it wasn't a bunch of bulges like eggs. Sigh. She either has a bunch of small duds or one huge egg, LOL. Or the others were hiding. Or its all in my head.
I'm keeping the incubator running anyhow.
