Finally Gravid?

So after weeks of putting together my miami phase and my snow corn (snow is female), she started really refusing his advances.

So my husband and I looked at their reactions with each other, and as much as Brian wants to 'get it on', we decided that it was enough and we didnt want to force anything else really exciting on her.

In the process we were cleaning cages and noticed that she was really balling up her bedding in one area and just, laying in a circle around it like ive seen in pictures where a cornsnake is laying.

Now, after palpating her, we both felt "bumps" in her belly and figure that she is gravid now and that we are going to start making serious preparations getting ready for baby corns later this summer.

Is the bumps (even though theyre very slight) a good sign that Sugar is gravid? Also, what other signs besides her looking bloated and/or fat towards her vent can we expect to see?
My husband has done lots of research, but im more of a learn by doing person, and with him backing me up we are pretty sure she is gravid and that we need to start getting her a lay box ready (when i say ready i mean, put it in her terrarium).

Anyway, hopefully we will see some activity later.
 
Whoops! Nevermind.
I figured she would lay next week, but nope. She has a mind of her own lol.

She laid 21 eggs while we were at the park with the kids today, so yep! Day one of the wait has begun!
