Congratulations - 23 live and 3 slugs is a good sized fertile litter!

Back on January 16 Louie posted a forum question:
"Has anyone ever had a gravid boa that did not gain alot of weight or look extremely swelled up? "

Did that question refer to the same boa that dropped the 23 live on March 30 ?

What is the length of the female? Can you share any photos of her while gravid ?

regards, G.Lewis

I need help!!!!!! :-/
My boa just had 25 healthy babies and no slugs! NOW WHAT? I'm not a breeder so I don't really know what to do with the babies. I knew that she was gravid because I bred her with my male and she showed all the signs. I thought for sure something would go wrong, like all the babies would be dead or deformed. I knew to keep them in a moist environment for 24hours. It's been about 14. They are in a large plastic container with breathing holes and moist paper towels. When can I take out all the mucous? Will they drown in it? If you have any advise I'd really appreciate it! Thanks!

Hello Amie,I am guessing that you dont have a rack for the babies,keep them on warm moist paper towels with temps 82 to 85F.What do you have planned for them?I have alot of open space at my facility,maybe i could be of some help to you.E-mail me at....spangler_serpents@comcast.net P.S. Send some pics if possible.GOOD LUCK,Mike.
