    Re: Why..

    She may be preparing to hold eggs. You should palpate her.

    I have never been able to feel anything. Even in girls just before they laid.
    Its a feel thing.
    If she is building you better start building an incubator.

    thanks young sir, if that's the case i haven't captured the two i have, locking up at all, not even an attempt so incubator 4, had these snakes for a total of 5 years and whenever she eats she gets big like that poops it out and kinda returns back to her usual size.. But next month i'm gonna purchase a 100% het male to see where he might take her babies..

    Het what? Either way putting recessive to her with chances of a normal male being in the mix will be a total waste of time.
    A het only carries the gene but is not visual.
    All you are going to do is get a clutch of POSSIBLE 50% hets, only worth normal pricing because you will not know who the daddy is.

    Why are you buying up snakes to breed and add more mouths to feed and take care of down the road when you don't even have a steady income to take care of what you have?
