    what do you think?

    my new concinnus has suddenly gained weight in no relation to her food intake (picky eater)
    as you may know I'm a reformed snake over feeder, and I've seen a few over weight snakes
    this looks a bit different though







    should I be concerned?

    Just a random question- how long is she?

    Rhea, I'd say there is a good possibility she is gravid. In an advanced stage you will feel lumps in her belly if she is.

    A cautious "congratulations!", then, if she's gravid. My female didn't get gravid, which is sort of what I was hoping for.

    will do, Josh
    if she is, it's a bit unexpected . . .
