Here is Mew today:
http://www.thecornsnake.co.uk/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=8724
When she was fed on monday (the last time i had her out) she was lovely and slim, like she usually is. Today her back end looks rather chunky, so here i am in panic mode again 
She is moving more slowly than usual and arches herself when i run my finger down her tummy.
Has she suddenly become a big fat mong in a few days or is it something terrifyingly evil like a tumor or an infection or something??
Or maybe she is ovulating, even though she's an '09? (can you usually see when corns do that?)
Aaah!

Are you sure it's not a poo in waiting?

Could be, but when she's about to blow its only the last inch or so of body that look big.
I guess it could be a serious monster poo! |

Mine always looks very chunky before a poo, right at the bum end - I'd wait until she's blown and then see if it's disappeared! Then start to question what it could be, but in my experience it's usually a big 'un brewing!

My first thought was poop. I always give the tail a good look at before handling as I am sure they save it up for me  |

One super-poop later and she still looks the same 
The chunkiness starts about halfway down her, and feels a bit squishy (her top half looks and feels normal though!) |

Yum yum
Are eggs still likely if she's only an '09?
I've given her a nice laying box, just in case! |

| When did you first notice it... Question to the more experienced members. Could it be a fatty deposit??? |
