Well this is my second year and breeding them and I have a second female gravid I am pretty sure. So i will give you my limited experience. Yes she very well may be gravid. How long has it been since she was pulled from the male? Has she gone into a shed? She may not look overly large. The two females I have bred didn't look very big either. I actually was not sure mine was gravid last year until she built the nest to have the babies. You see alot of them on the net with pics of huge swelled boas full of babies. Mine didn't get that large for whatever reason. They won't usually lay on there side so this could be another sign.



If you saw alot of courting and then the male showed no more interest. Then about 3 weeks or so later the female was in a shed. She may be gravid.If she refuses food and she has never done it before that is a good sign also. Mine had always slammed rats and when she became gravid last year she would ignore them sometimes but would eat when she wanted to.
