    A full-body shot might help to decide if she's gravid. That's a rat pink she's eating, right?

    Ben,

    I think she's gravid. I want to say she is because I think I can see some irregular lumps sticking out of her, but I can't be sure without seeing her whole body... particularly how it tapers near the cloaca. She's either gravid or VERY obese. How often and how much do you feed her? If she's not very overfed, then she's definitely gravid.

    she gets , on average 3 or 4 rat pinkys, and maybe 8 or so fish a week between 2 feedings

    I love those snakes. But for the price tag on them, I probably won't be getting one. Soon anyway.

    Re: gravid californian

    you know,
    I'm looking at the picture of the snake in the hand
    because I'm trying to gauge how big this snake is
    because my garters get fat on less than half that amount of food
    in fact, one of them is still working off double chins from last year's indulgences

    Re: gravid californian

    now I'm looking at the pictures of it eating and I realize - this must be a huge snake
