Re: Behira - 2016 Female Ivory Ghost - First BCI
Thank you!
I'd rather be a helicopter Snarent than oblivious. Much worse things, yes.
However, I am probably also cognizant that I saved Yafe's life because I did intervene. That's emotional, feeling I saved him to a large extent, true or not. However, intervening may not help Behira, or change anything, or make it so things need to be changed, and it may just run its course.
BTW - If you didn't see, I edited my post above to include her last year of sheds.

So it's really only been the last few sheds that were so close together?
Yes, the past 3 sheds happened in about a 60 day period.

Re: Behira - 2016 Female Ivory Ghost - First BCI
I had a nice talk with Tommy Carpenter, from TC Reptiles, today. He is Feliz's breeder and does locale boas mostly.
He felt that Behira could be hormonal, but also, wanting to grow. He thought feeding every ten days was a good idea and to give her some time and see if she has a growth spurt.
I appreciate everyone being concerned and helping me cope with the stress here, but maybe I am looking for something that isn't there and being a helicopter Snarent?
Either way, I'll keep soaking her every few days, feeding every 10 days, and track her weight, sheds, etc. as I always do.
Hoping this is me blowing things out of proportion.

Re: Behira - 2016 Female Ivory Ghost - First BCI
Behira was back in blue a few days ago and due to eat 2 days ago. I offered and she happily nailed and ate her rat. I do not usually feed animals in blue, but given what's going on, wanted to keep her strength up and offer anyway. It was a slightly smaller meal and I do not think it will impact her ability to shed.

I think she's just "messing with you"... She loves all the attention. (& don't tell her this but she looks great)

I hope you are correct! I think she looks great too. She's also acting fine, eating, etc. Just so weird.

Thank you Rich. She sure does. However, I am now feeding a medium rat every 10 days, not 21 days. Of course, if this is her saying, "I want to grow!" then that should definitely help.

Maybe this is just her body's way of doing a growth spurt? I guess only time will tell? Don't you just love a good mystery?
