2 of my gravid girls =)

Here are 2 of my gravid girls, Guen is the big banded and Princess is the smaller banana. I checked on and fed them both a few days ago and at that time it didn't look like Princess was gravid, but this is what I saw when I checked on her tonight I wasn't sure she was going to produce for me this year even tho I saw them hook up as it is her first year and she is soooo much smaller than my big banana male, but obviously he managed to do the deed properly. Yay!
I have another gravid Cal king but she's blue right now so no pics til she's shed..or she's laying

that pic of the wide-banded snake is a classic for illustrating how a gravid snake is swollen in the back half of the body, versus an animal that's just eaten a lot and is distended mid-body. Should be instructive for a lot of the newbies here.
Good luck with them (your females, not with the newbies!)
