"Second shed In Progress"
Is my snake pregnant?
Sorry if this pic is too big.

Anyway, I'm not sure how to feel for babies.
Also, notice how the top of the snake is kinda skinny, but gets fatter as you look down the snake.
Any help is appreciated, thanks.

Re: Is my snake pregnant?
Welcome to the forum! How can a pic be too big..?
I honestly can't tell... Did you recently catch her, or have you had her for awhile.
Looks kinda skinny to me.... as in, not pregnant, but underweight..
But like I said. I can't tell.

Welcome to the forum.
Might be gravid but also is underweight. Has she been eating and if so what?
Can you give us some history on the snake please.

Re: Is my snake pregnant?
Oh, sorry.
Here is some history...
I recently caught this snake. (Recently as in about a month, my estimate.)
It has been eating. It originally only wanted frogs. A few days ago, I scented worms with a frog and it decided to eat the worms.
I decided it should stick with the worm diet. I can't supply frogs year-round, it will be too cold. I can supply night crawlers the whole year, they are sold in stores.

I see blue redspots
Re: Is my snake pregnant?
Hard to tell from the poor quality of the picture. The upper part almost looks as if she's undernourished and the thick part starts too far up. I hope your snake isn't impacted. Looks impacted to me, which is usually fatal without prompt vet care. Looks like it might be puget sound garter?
From now on, I'll treat others like they treat me. Some will be glad, others should be scared

I'd like to see some more pics taken in better light. I don't like the looks of this snake. Something could be wrong.

I will post more pictures soon...
This snake looks pretty much the same since I got it.
I caught this snake.
It was not that long ago, less then a month.
It is eating worms.

Old and wise snake
Re: Is my snake pregnant?
Agreed, it looks like it could be gravid, but also not very healthy.. Hopefully it's just a skinny gravid garter and not impacted or anything, but I don't think it's possible to tell from that pic.
Just wondering, would a garter that badly impacted still be eating regularly and acting normal?
