That's a much bigger response than I ever expected! So basically she could go but I should really wait a year. Personally I think she's still too small. Out of curiousity, to find out if she really had lumps or if she was just laying wierd, I took her out of her cage for a little while, she does seem slightly swollen on the tail end (and she hasn't pooped). Her weight was 846 grams yesterday and she hasn't eaten since starting her shed. I have heard of 1500 gram females having viable litters...Vin Russo just did it this year with his anery nic female. She was really thin when I got her and she is putting on good wieght, my concern would be that she wouldn't have the fat stores to complete a prengnacy.
So to my other question...could that be pre-ovulation swelling in the pics? I have had snakes for 12 years and have never bred any so I really don't know what it will look like when mine are ready and there isn't much info on pre-ovulation...I have looked at tons of actual ovulation pictures...
