I'm not the greatest at seeing them, but that looks good to me.

I would say no. While my females are ovulating, they are completely stretched right out, not even a hint of a coil.

Here's a pic I took this morning. She has not eaten for over 3 weeks. Just building follicles? Or just a fat snake? Time will tell. My spider male has lost all interest in her. They have copulated 14 times since Oct. 22

Having not eaten for three weeks she definately looks close to ovulation, she might even be going through a pre-swell and the real one is on its way shortly! Females will change there chemical signals through hormone changes close to ovulation too, males pickup on that and usually discountinue breeding those girls.
good luck!
