i have a garter that we caught in our back yard a few months ago, she has shed fully twice now but this time she hasn't eaten in a week and a half and i noticed she was starting to dull in color two days ago and her eyes changed to a blueish gray color today but my husband and i are worried cause she hasn't eatin in a week and a half. Is that normal?:confused::confused::confused:

If she's shed twice since you got her you must be doing something right.;)
Relax. She'll probably starting eating soon.

Could this possibly be a gravid girl?

That tells me right there that she had quite a bit of yolk reserves that are still nourishing her. Otherwise she wouldn't have grown and needed to shed.
