How long is it since she ate......The pics you posted are not the greatest to judge a snake by, but she doesn't look unduly thin to me.

That is some time, but in my experience not a real long time. Keep an eye on her weight and make sure it doesn't drop dramatically. I wouldn't worry just yet, after all she is old enough to know this is egg laying time, it may have something to do with it....

I'd have to wonder the same thing. If she's hiding under her water bowl, maybe she's gravid and just looking for a place to lay eggs; hence the not eating part?

Some females will produce slugs when they're unmated, you could pop a laybox in to see what happens.
