In garters the male's tail is thicker and the females tapers off pretty quickly into a skinny tail and is much more thinner than in males. She could be a year or two in age. If you take pics of her tail Im sure someone could tell you if it is male or female. As for me when I saw how big she looked in the pic I thought right away that was a female and then I looked at the tail and that gave me another clue that it may be a female.



She probably was inflating herself. If you prob it will be the same for boas. take another pic when it is calm and maybe we can tell you what it is.
