I'm new to breeding and looking forward to the experience, I mated my female 3 weeks ago, should I be seeing any signs of her being gravid yet or is it still a bit to early?

I wouldn't try... if she is pregnant, it's meant to be best not to handle her too much, also, if you try feeling for the eggs, you could accidentally do her some damage.

There's something you could try without handling her - I was told that if you let pregnant corn snake glide over the palm of your hand you can sometimes feel the eggs like bumps, as she's crawling over your hand.

At around 4-5 weeks you should be able to feel them if you let her run over your hand while moving about in her enclosure. Not all snakes are the same though
