im with them! :8:

Sorry everyone...nothing yet.

So much anticipation! Lets hope this is a HAWT litter!

Squeeze Her Already!!!!

Goodness gracious, at this rate shes never going to have them lol.. if nothing else they will be well done..

i know, shes olding out because were all making her nervous lol.. we need more pics of her lol


a question: i have no experience with breeding boas what so ever, since they have live babies do the mothers even do anything with them once they are born? Do they start slithering around the moment they are born? (i have made my own assumptions in my mind but thought i would ask)

She is going to give birth to full grown boas at his rate :rolleye2:

Must be something amazing cooking in there....You always have to wait for the best :gj:

There's no way a boa can "abort" a litter so to speak is there?

Just curious.

Ill bet she birthed em already. And every one em escaped. Haha

Jimi is just lieing to us....they popped out days ago, and he is just stringing us along!!!!!!!!!

C'mon big mama...it's time to have some babies!!!

I googled "snake late giving birth" but evidently, no other snake on earth has ever been late. I say call Guinness World Records and get her in that book. I'm going stir crazy here.

Hey! I found an article about using oxytocin to induce labor in a jamaican boa. Something to think about...:gj::D

I must have screwed something up with my records, not sure how or what, but it must be something I did wrong. She's definitely gravid and definitely big, but no signs of birth at all! I'm racking my brains here too...

Uh oh, better start watching any other females, see if they mysteriously pop out some babies!

If you can ultrasound, too see if they are completely formed, can you induce birth? like they do in humans?

Haha, probably. I think it'll be ok. She must be one of those breaking the rules girls. A friend of mine just had his first litter of the year and his girl went to day 124, so I'm not the only one.

I say she will have them on thursday:) Should we make a " Cut" thread... Chainsaw ready?:D

It all depends on what your settings are set to. Mine is set to show 50 posts per page, so I have 4 pages.

I think I'll start a new thread when she pops...lol

How about a gamble? This girl delivered 21 healthy baby boas one day late last year.

Will she pop before the one in this thread or will the one in this thread pop first?

The one in this thread is a SalmonPastel and the one in the pic above is a Pastel. The Pastel is due on March 12th.

What's it gonna be? :rolleye2:

Wow this is nuts, i cant believe she still has not popped. I would be going crazy haha

Yeah...I know! lol. She's getting really scawny looking too, so she needs to eat soon. I can't feed her in the last month of the gestation or they'll run a risk of still-birth on me.

Dang it will she drop all ready? I've been lurking too since the beginning. My guess is Thursday at 6:30 am CMT and 42 babys

I dont even have a guess at this point, i have kept lurking too but dang. My guess is ... Shes gonna have them when shes good and ready!

NO way she's having 42 babies, more like 24 tops. I'm guessing 15 realistically, but hoping for 20!

Good gravy man, you mean you have another snake about to have babies? She better be right on time, because I can't take another ordeal like this! :rofl:

Hi,

Is that because of the demands of digestion or some other reason - does feeding much smaller meals make any difference?

Sorry for asking so many questions but I haven't heard about that and wondered if it was something that applied to BP's too.:oops:


dr del

I know very little of BP breeding. MOST RTB females will not eat readily during gestation. Out of the 6 litters I'm having this season, only one has refused a monthly much-smaller-than-normal meal. My breeder girls are all on XXL to XXXL rats or comparable sized rabbits before the season starts and I'll offer them a medium to medium-large rat once a month after their post ovulation shed (pos) is done up till the last 30-40 days before the due date. Feeding them, since they are live birth, too close to the due date can cause one of two things:

1- premature delivery
2- stillborns

Not a good thing!

How long is she?

Hey Jimi~ Is there some way that you can massage (or something) to help induce if she gets to the point where she is getting to emaciated? Will she let you do that?
