110Days since pos. should i be worried?

Came out yesterday and got into position to deliver, then back into HCP on top of paper where she has stayed

Don't worry man, I've had boas go 130 days after POS before dropping, and they had large amounts of healthy babies and very few if any slugs.  She looks monsterous there though, so I would say any day now.  Try darkening the cage during the day and spraying her every five minutes or so with luke warm water for about an hour. Also, only during this hour period, try decreasing the temps by 4-5 degrees. Good luck.

Thanks Jon! You eased my mind.

No problem bud, I have been there many-a-time in the past 3 years, and it is no fun at all. Just wait it out, she'll be fine I guarantee. Definetely post pics. But once you see those babies, it was all worth it. By the way, what are the genetics in that boa; is she just a normal?

she's a common with widow peaks all the way down. someone gave her to me after i told him he was killing her with a 24hr light cycle, no heat or water. He just said take her. I nursed her back and now hopefully she awards me with another litter. Last year I didn't keep notes so i've nothing to go by this year. next yr will be different.

[Have fun and pray for rain]

We haven't had rain in weeks, well yesterday my female dropped 21 lost 6 but it rained last night and today. By the way as close as I could count it was 129 days.

Thanks a million for the posts people. I appreciate it. I am feeling much better (calm). Rain in the forecast for monday night-tuesday morning. Hopefully next post will be pics of babies. Thanks again for all the wonderful/informative material on this sight. I only check her 50 times a day compared to the 100 times i used to. (lol)

Well... how many did she have!?!?!?

[mac136]

She had 14, all live and no slugs. The funny thing is she stayed kinda fat and i was worried she was holding out on me, she ate like a beast the next day then 2 days later she took a dump that resembled something my pet St Bernard did once. She shed soon after and has continued to eat like mad. Thanks for all the advise. I've been eyeballing your cages and once I move some of the babes I think I will be ordering 2.
