My female boa may be gravid. We stuck Mercutio in with her and he went right to work (so did she, she couldn't wait, she spurred HIM [img]modules/Forum/images/smiles/icon_eek.gif[/img]). She has been in blue now for what seems to be an unusually long time...at least 5 days now. Morti tells me this is the post-ovulation shed. If she is gravid and she gives us babies, they should be nice. Here are pics of her and daddy:

Serendipity in her best colors:


This pic of Mercutio was taken just a few days ago. He is the one with the gorgeous orange eyes:

VERY NICE!!!
I LOVE YOUR GIRL!
That silver color is amazing; and they're both so high contrast.
You should have some killer babies.

What we think was her POS was 02/24/03. We are still unsure if she is gravid or not. She doesn't seem to be getting any fatter.... [img]modules/Forum/images/smiles/icon_confused.gif[/img]

It appears that she might not have been gravid afterall. This has been an abysmal breeding year for us. I can pin-point several things that could have caused it, but either way, it has not been good.

I hope that everything will work out better this coming fall. We have more snakes that are ready to breed and so hopefully the statistics will produce better results. We can only hope so anyway. [img]modules/Forum/images/smiles/icon_smile.gif[/img]

Thanks for requesting the update though. I just wish I had better news to report.

-Morti.

Bummer...
Wasn't zombie supposed to be breeding a female(s)? Did that fizzle out too?
Sorry about your luck!

Zombie will hopefully be breeding Titania when her &quot;Window of Opertunity&quot; opens up (to borrow a Boaphile phrase). Hopefully this will happen sometime this fall. I have noticed that females tend to hit their pre-ov twist sometime around August or September here in my home. Hopefully everything will go better this year as I have no plans to move around then like I did last fall.

Thanks again and Happy Breeding!
-Morti.

2ND ALARM REPTILES MAY HAVE THE SAME THING HAPPENING THIS YEAR. THE FEMALE LOOK LIKE SHE HAD AND OVALATION BUT NO BABIES. SHE DIDN'T SWELL UP VERY BIG LIKE THE BOAS IN THE PAST. BUT SHE DID BECOME VERY ACTIVE IN JUNE AND JULY. [img]modules/Forum/images/smiles/icon_evil.gif[/img] [img]modules/Forum/images/smiles/icon_evil.gif[/img]

Yeah no love at my place either. Well....had lots of Snakie love, but I'd sure like to know hold told my male about being safe and responsible. So far only had the one premature clutch, 24 slugs, and 5 deformed babies. [img]modules/Forum/images/smiles/icon_frown.gif[/img]
