However her temperament is of a Puppy so I love her.

I did see a slight yellow/tan spine color in the 1st months of this thread.. Did that fade Spazhime?

It did! It will show again while she is in shed, but once she sheds its gone again :) Also! I am currently pairing her to my disco/fire, and she is showing some promising signs!

She is currently sitting at 2500g :)

Wow.. Thats going to be some Show Stoppers [emoji1362]

Thank you! I am just waiting on signs of follicles, because I suck at palipating haha

How do we get a famous Leliana baby?!? :) I’m so excited!

I will post the babies on my tumblr, and likely on my facebook page! If you like I can keep y'all updated on here as well :) <3
And it has been a while since I've done some hats!

Leliana, you don't have any legs

So lovely. Best wishes with the babies. Let me know when the hatch.

Thanks! I'll keep y'all updated :) With how thick she's looking I am thinking an ovulation is in bound! She won't let me palpate her, she stiffens up, so I can't feel for follicles.

I feel like she is getting close to ovulation, look how plump she is! And she is in shed again as well. If this isn't pre-ovy shed, I'd be surprised.
https://ball-pythons.net/forums/cach...mz4o1_1280.jpg

Deeep in shed, and lumpy!
https://ball-pythons.net/forums/cach...mz4o1_1280.jpg

Looking good! :gj:

Darling Leliana had her pre-ovulation shed last night, and has 8 ping pong sized follicles!

Leliana is such a gorgeous lady! I just found this thread and went through every single post from the beginning. I’m anxiously awaiting my Super Lesser BEL girl. The weather needs to cooperate for shipping but here is a pic from the breeder.

She is due to ovulate early next month, so this is likely the last photoset you'll get of her out of her cage! I made it a good one :)

Either I missed an ovy or she's about to ovy. Look at that! She has refused food (which is normal for before ovulation) for like two months so I know thats not poop butt.

Very excited for you!!! Hoping my little Super Lesser bel girl turns out as bright white as that also.

Thanks guys!! She is so stunning honestly, I am so lucky she turned out as white as she is! <3
Still no ovy but she has GOT to be close!
(Excuse the weird lighting in these photos, she looks almost purple for some reason?)

She just let go of her pre-lay shed, three weeks or so until eggs!

So good news and bad news. Good news! 4 good eggs :) Bad news, 7 slugs :/ AZ had a heat wave that came suddenly and I wasn't home to adjust thermostats. I've got several other friends here in AZ who's females have slugged out or also layed a majority of slugs. Thankful for the 4 good ones. Here's mama on eggs, you can see one of the slugs and 3 of the good ones:
