Well yes you are right, that is a 20-24 inch slide (not sure, I would have to ask) but it is also a picture of that slide that cuts a little off each end from my memory. If we call it 24inches before the pic and go with an excessive guess of 4 inches lost to the picture we got 20 inches of ova there... on the inside. On the outside she has a little more swelling up and down from the center of the mass today but it still is not big. I would say it still looks like a XXXL rat in her that is on the south side of her stomach instead of the north side. Still not what I would expect.

My fear was that she ate some large pieces of mulch and it had caused a blockage in her. I was afraid that what I was seeing is the leftovers of the last 3 food items backing up in her. If that was what I was told had happened I would totally "get it" from what I am seeing. She still does not look gravid to me but from the change I can see since Saturday when I had her at the vet I am guessing I will get my reward of giant swollen female soon!!! I hope she goes that route and I did not miss it on my vacation. I want to experiance all the stages of this, all the fun and hopefully very little of the pain. I have had more than one breeder tell me "Eggs are easy, hatchlings are the hard part, then you get to get them to feed..."

I hope, hope, hope!! Someone just called and asked what I think I will get in hatchlings and my honest answer was 0... anything better and I will be thrilled!!
