my female norm has been locking up with my male albino since early august. her last shed was 9/21, her last meal was 10/3, her last defecation 10/21, her weight as of 11/28 3174g. today i saw her with her head and ( what i will call neck for now ) resting in the water bowl. ( the only time i've witnessed snakes soaking when not in blue is when they have mites, so i immediately pulled her out to check. ) i had my nephew hold her for me to get a photo and even in the photo you can noticeably see the bulge in the lower 1/3 of her body. just looking for some confirmation and a guess at wether she is gravid or is this just a sign of ovulation ect.

If her last meal was almost two months ago and she has that unexplainable bulge, I'd say there is a good chance she is going to lay for you. I'm terrible at palpating, so I do everything visually, and that bulge is one of the things I look for in my females.
