Finally we've got our first clutch of babies. The female was sent to me on a breeding loan and then the guy decided to sell the Boa. Obviously we bought it.

She had 27 live, 2 slugs and no still borns. Quite a small clutch for a female her size, although it was her first so there is hope.

Thanx for all the comments. I actually expected more from her as she is a big girl, but who knows what next season will bring!

I like the stripe tailed one. I might just keep it. The only one in the clutch with a tail like that. There were some very nice patterns amongst them. I'll take individual photos of the nicest once they have shed.

Sorry about the pics, our site is busy changing hosts so they should be up again soon.

I'll post a pic of mom and dad soon aswell.

Wow she finely droped. Thats a nice clutch. Love the tails! Have you figured out if the striped tail one is a male or female? Its a nice looking little red tail!Looking forward to seeing some after shed pics!!

Sorry, no, it's not the same female. This is a different female to the one I think you are referring to.

I will wait till they shed and then determine what their sexes are. I should be keeping the stripe tailed one though, no matter what sex.

Ah, the first baby shed last night, and by this morning another two had shed. There's nothing spectacular about the 3 that have shed, but I will post pics of some once they all have shed. Can't wait to see how they all turn out.
