Leliana the BEL, progression thread

[spazhime]

So! I tried my hand at palpating again yesterday, and I think I felt a few follicles! About 10mm I think. We will see how she develops Once she gets bigger I'll have to take her tree away, don't want her to hurt any possible eggs

That is great! What was she paired with?

She was paired with a pinstripe I am hoping most of the clutch will be kingpins and jigsaws, I am hoping for a little male kingpin to pair with a future leopard, I am shooting for eventual ocelots

Leliana now weighs in at 2,319g!
Hoping part of it is follicle growth

I think that the sheer size makes it even more of a stunning snake !

Honestly I wouldn't be too concerned about the log considering snakes don't have someone coming in and cleaning up their environment when they're gravid out in the wild. They're designed to slither around all over the place, no point in fussing too much!

Thank you! It's my first year breeding so I am just really nervous about everything, haha. Today was cage cleaning day, and she's about to go in to shed so I am hoping it is a pre ovulation shed! I got her out and had the hubby snap a few pics before putting her back.

She went belly up! She's never done that before, ovulation is incoming

[Lizardlicks]

Looks promising! I'll keep my fingers crossed for you.

Thank you! I am hoping after she sheds that I will catch an ovy
