Here's a pic of my largest girl. About a week ago I noticed what I thought was an ovulation. But since then, what I thought was an ovulation has now been increasing in size through out her body. So I guess I need to get that incubator ready. What do you guys think? I've never really seen the precise growth/development process with gravid females. So I'll just see what happens in the months to come.

If she is increasing , maybe you witnessed the the very beginning of the building process. That happened to me this season , all my girls just got fat one night and continued on from there , Best of Luck ,

Yeah you can tell she is gravid because of the last 3-4 inches of her tail is so skinny while the rest of her body is fat/big. If it was just a fat/big snake and not gravid her tail wouldn't be so skinny like that.
