I have been enjoying my Blacknecks so much I just thought I would take a few pictures and post them.

I'm thinking that Big Momma is gravid.

She is very plump,

And feels lumpy if I slide my fingers along her belly.

Not sure if she's gravid. Don't see much scale spread.
Doesn't mean she isn't, just not seeing the obvious signs.
Time will tell.
Beautiful girl by the way.;)

The guy who sold her said she had a history of very small litters, like... one or two babies. If that's the case would you even be able to tell before she gave birth? Just wondering, I've never seen a gravid garter before.

The more I learn about snakes the more I find I don't know.

Steve, I have been watching a lot of your videos on thamnophis14 (http://www.youtube.com/user/thamnophis14?feature=watch)


I don't know which is my favorite but the babies eating the chopped worm is pretty cool.

Beautiful gal!
Im hoping my adult gals (one eastern one butlers) are gravid. Both are fine and fat and constantly HUNGRY, but im still learning what to watch for.

Thanks. I'm partial to little scrubs eating.
