red tail boa

[Anthonyallen61]

so long story short I paid $100 for a 2year old 4.5 foot red tail boa and a month after I got her she has babies that was over a month ago and now she has 2 lumps near her rear end.

anyone have any ideas what this could be?

A little hard reading that sentence. The boa you bought had babies, and now has lumps near its vent? Is that what you are saying?

Have pictures of the lumps?

Have those lumps been there the whole time since having her babies?

[Anthonyallen61]

no, the day after she had them it showed up

didn't even know she was having babies til the night It happen

How long ago did she have babies?

Boas give live birth, so saying she's "egg bound" is probably the wrong term. But if she wasn't able to release all the young - or if they didn't all develop correctly inside her - this could be what you're seeing. I would soak her in warm water, massaging gently around the areas to see if you can ease those lumps out. Otherwise, get her to a vet.

Has she passed urates or feces since having the babies?

Does she have any other symptoms or issues?
