What does it mean when a snake ovulates?

[Archimedes]

Almost as if she ate a small football.

Mmm, delicious.

It's actually accurate though. Like one of those Nerf footballs they sell in grocery stores.

You'll also see her colors brighten and lighten almost unbelievably in the several days before the actual ovy. This is called "glowing". Although it's not the most reliable prediction, and it's always possible to miss it; always is with these girls.
