    Perhaps gravid...what do you think?

    ( Sorry for the bad pic...I just snapped it while I was cleaning tubs...bad lighting and all lol )

    I paired this female with another mojo in hopes to make some BELS this season but I never felt follicles or seen any signs of ovulation....she went off feed in mid may and seems to be swelling like she is gravid......maybe I just missed all the signs and she is gravid...what do you guys think?

    Looks like she's starting to glow more than she's already gravid

    Anyone else notice she looks small?
    How much does she weigh?

    Sorry just saying.
    But by the pix she looks small and you don't want to breed a small female.

    But if she isn't,
    Than that pix doesn't really show he glowing much. But ridge backed she is.

    She might be about to ovulate... or maybe she has already and you just missed it. She is definitely ridge backed.

    To the post above (sookieball): I think that is a 28qt tub, if so she's about 1/3 the size of it, so I'd say she's probably between 1500-2000g, which is plenty big enough. I could be way off. The tub just looks alot like my 28qt. tubs, and if so she would be plenty big. Pictures are usually deceiving when it comes to telling the size of a snake.

    I have had a late year. My first clutch was laid on June 23rd. I have had 2 more lay since then.(1 last night). I have another female due to lay in a few weeks. Another just had her prelay shed. LOL and have 3 more that I think will go yet.

    They make their own schedule I got busy with puppies and did not cool until December, but this is enough evidence to convince me to breed all year.

    Good luck with her!!
