Behira - 2016 Female Ivory Ghost - First BCI

[CloudtheBoa]

Looking good! So glad hear she’s out of the danger zone and is still holding out on her new shed cycle. And being a bit more hesitant at least the last time you mentioned it is a big plus.

Thank you, Rich.

Actually, you're both looking well.

Awwwww, shucks . I am fortunate to be surrounded with beautiful women. Katie and Behira included. It's nice to know they are not the only eye candy around here .

Yeah, she was shedding at 2X this rate only months ago. I'll take the improvement.

Going to try the lights on, drape down, lights off, rat in, technique again. I'll advise. Really don't want her hurting herself.

Behira is simply gorgeous.

Have a short video below of me and Behira. I am getting distracted by football a little, but wanted to show off her size, looks, and demeanor. She's got a lot of growing left, but she's my biggest reptile already. She's awesome.

I feed tonight and will only report if she strikes the doors and the new lights on, drape off, lights off, technique doesn't work as it has the past two feedings.

Behira left me a huge present today, but still weighed in at 2,120G. She's definitely growing slowly, but surely. She was about 1,670G at the beginning of the year and was having major shed issues, as many of you know (frequent sheds). Now that the sheds are spreading out, so is her food intake. I am moving her from every 10 days to every 2 weeks, but still medium rats (about 100-130G).

Nothing else to report really, but I will post pictures soon. She's looking great, I just didn't have time to take pics tonight as she pooped later in the day, I had other stuff to do, and I didn't want to leave it overnight.

Got a couple of pics of Behira today before changing her water. She eats tonight. She was in her dark phase.

Behira had a perfect shed last night. That's 35 days since last shed. The prior shed was 38 days, but we are still in range. She's doing great otherwise.

I'll post pics soon.

Behira weighed in dry today at 2,190G. She's looking great and still her sweet self when out and about.

She's putting on size, but not too fast. She's 4 1/2 this month and "only" about 5 1/2 feet. She's still on medium rats (about 100G) every 2-3 weeks, but usually closer to 2 weeks.

I have no intention of moving her up to large rats for a while. Of course, when I do, I plan to feed her less frequently, especially if, as I assume they will be, her shed issues are gone by then.

Behira continues to do well. She's looking good and continues to be the least "grippy" of all my boas. That's good, because she is getting very strong.

Here are some recent pics.
