Mother's Day litter!
Albino Male x Het Albino:
http://i143.photobucket.com/albums/r...binoTeaser.jpg
This is an awesome litter for the one reason: My daughter is here to witness her first boa birthing! She's glued to the cage and in complete awe!

Re: Mother's Day litter!
Congrats, Jimi! That's awesome that your daughter got to see it too.

Re: Mother's Day litter!
Nice!!! :gj:
Now, ask your daughter to please go and get my snake and hold her while she watches the show :D
-
Re: Mother's Day litter!
dude thats so cool that your girl got to see that ish. I bet she was almost as excited as you were! :D
-
Re: Mother's Day litter!
Haha, thanks eveyone. My little girl found the mother giving birth during "her rounds" lol and came in running to me..."Daddy Daddy Daddy!!!!" She was so ecstatic she had to sit and watch the whole thing and is now STILL glued to the enclosure watching the mom sift through the goo. She makes me proud! haha

Crazy, huh?! Very different from egg laying ball pythons!! Boas have a lot of babies and so to breed, you must be prepared to have a lot of mouths to feed and potentially raise for the long haul.

If I had the room and experience ( and money) I definitely would!
-
Re: Mother's Day litter!
Yeah, same with my son. He wants me to get a sunglow male from Jimi next year (for my bday no less) so that he can breed from my house when he's in college. Hmmmm, how many errors can you see in this scenario?!?!
-
Re: Mother's Day litter!
Yay for the boa doctor in training! I'd be right there with her...
shoot, I'm still glued to the cage if I can watch one of our snakes shed...the burm is fun to watch. =D
-
Re: Mother's Day litter!
Thanks again everyone, but I have some bad news. One of the sacs that came out yesterday had 3 babies in it. Yes...triplets! (My daughter almost fell over), 2 albinos and 1 het...the 2 albinos died during the night. So, final count is 7 albinos and 10 Hets.

awww Jimi, sorry to hear that brotha, sux when something is soo exciting, then just comes to a complete hault.
But still 7-10 isnt bad odds, at least I dont think so.
Keep the head up brudda!

Well, that's a bummer, but triplets are not exactly hardy. I'm glad that one still made it and 7 is an awesome number! :gj:

That's too bad about the triplets. I've never heard of triplets in snakes.
Still got a nice bunch, though.
-
Re: Mother's Day litter!
If you look in the pic of the whole group, up in the right hand corner is the little het that is still doing good. The Albinos are a little harder to find, but they have the really bloated looking bellies.
-
Re: Mother's Day litter!
In your experience, do most triplets not make it?

I've heard of twins and I've heard of them being fine. I've never heard of triplets before at all. I just wish they weren't coming out of the sac right after being born so I coulda got a quick pic, but they were ripping through immediately.

Do you have any guess as to what happened?
-
Re: Mother's Day litter!
Yeah, I don't get it. Since there was one sac, I would think that they would be identical; which they weren't since there was a het in there. Are boa twins always identical?
-
Re: Mother's Day litter!
Sorry to hear about loosing 2 babies...=P
-
Re: Mother's Day litter!
Your guesses are as good as mine. I have no idea. It was odd to say the least.
-
Re: Mother's Day litter!
Here is a comparison shot of the surviving triplet and another het:

-
Re: Mother's Day litter!
Yeah, it wasn't hard to pick out the triplets; just had to look for very small head size :( Does the het seem to have any problems or is it just a wee one?
-
Re: Mother's Day litter!
Congrats on that stunning litter!!!! :banana: Sorry for the loss of the 2 triplets....
-
Re: Mother's Day litter!
The het seems to be absolutely fine, but we will see. I'll just have to make sure she sticks around here for awhile is all.
-
Re: Mother's Day litter!
What a big beautiful bunch of slimy snakes!! Congrats!!! :cool:
Sorry to hear about the two triplets, hope the het continues to do well!
