Non breeding females and immature animals are generally a uniform green color with some white markings. Gravid females are a very dark green with blue and yellow spots. The prominence of these markings is dependent on several factors including health, mood, and temperature of the lizard.

If you have a feeling she may be gravid, add a nesting box now so she can be ready to use it when the time is right (nest box can contain moist moss peat and should ideally be 10" deep min)

Good luck.
