well it's really hard to tell because she's flattened out in defensive posture. She doesn't look overtly gravid, but seeing as she's a wild female snake, and the time of year, she probably is gravid. I rarely, if ever, find healthy wild females that are not gravid in early summer! She looks a lot like a female eastern from FL scott sent me, just darker brown. She looks like what I would expect from florida pattern-wise, just not with the blueish hue that many of them have. She looks like she is related to an erythristic with the reddish hue hiding under that brown!
