I'm new to breeding snakes and I paired two of my rosy's up this year. I've suspended the introductions a couple of weeks ago when the pair lost interest in each other. The female has been thickening noticeably. She went opaque this week. I've read that snakes shed shortly before laying, birthing too? Do the intervening sheds signify any other events? Does being gravid alter the shed cycle (this female tends to go 4 - 6 months between sheds and if she's pregnant, I'd expect her to give birth in October?) ?

Thanks!
