    Pregnant or not??

    Hi

    i hope you can help me. I´m not sure, about my Radix female?

    Is it possible, that she´s pregnant. Look at the Photos please.
    I think she is, but i´m really not sure...
    Thank you

    I'm not so sure. The "plumpness" is too uniform throughout her entire length. Not to alarm you but I've seen that before in impacted snakes before they die. How is she behaving? eating well? seem to be feeling OK?

    Then again, she could just be gravid

    Looks like a gravid radix to me.
    Have you been tracking her weight?

    31, that's a nice group.
    After 31 I can see why she was a little down.
    Congrats.
