| She looks like she could be in the early stages, But have a feel of her belly, let her slide through your fingers, if you can feel little marble shapes it could either be ovulation/follicles, or small babies forming. |

It can be difficult to tell with Brazilians, Lilu. Even in person and touching the snake, you can't always be sure. I've seen more than one story of specialized breeders being susprised by unexpected litters, as well as disappointed by snakes they mistakenly thought were gravid. Behavior can be a hint: is she off her food? Is she hugging the heat? Does she lay at odd angles? One of the few ways to really narrow it is a fetal heart monitor, but even those aren't much use until much later in the process. Feel free to try feeling her belly, but be warned it may tell you less than you hope.
Best of luck, and I hope this helps-- |

| Happy to help. Another good sign would be if the male had lost all interest in her before you separated them. That means she's already taken, or the window has passed. |
