Is a month and a half too far into it to feed her? I thought she could eat still, as she has been doing. I've been feeding her smaller food items though, but she acts like she is starving once I offer them.



She is not in heat conservation positions yet. Here is a lowsy pic of her today. She might be a little bigger on the second half, but it is hard to tell.



While I am a little impatient, I'd really like to know if she is gravid because I don't want to stop feeding or handling her if she is not. Also, I'd really like to get to a reptile show this year, but if she doesn't have offspring, I don't think I'll have enough to sell. I'll continue to keep an eye on her assuming she is gravid just in case she isn't showing it all that well as you suggested.
