First off, let me say that it's great to be back. All of my "online time" was at work, and I changed jobs in December...but I'm back now!

Any-hoo, Monday night I witnessed (finally!) mating between my Male Anery het. Snow and my Female Snow.

My question is this, how will I tell for sure if she's pregnant? Any ways beyond waiting for her to swell up? Any behavioral changes to watch for?

I've already noticed that she's been waaaaay more active than usual, but it's only been 2 days and I think I might be grasping here.

Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated!
 
I really can't think of any way to tell if a snake is gravid other than seeing and/or feeling the eggs in her. And I've had snakes that really never "showed". You didn't mention if your pair has been housed together or seperately and put together only to mate. If you only put them together to mate, introduce them every 2-3 days a couple of more times. The more times they mate, the better the odds of your female becoming gravid and having a high percentage of fertile eggs. And it only takes about 5 weeks from mating for her to lay her eggs, so that really isn't a long time to wait to know for sure. Of course, the 9-10 weeks it takes for the eggs to hatch is an eternity!
