You've seen both recently but I snapped some new shots anyway. Hope you dont mind :).
The male (04' Jungle) courted the female (01' EBV Red Group) back in February/March. The female is housed in a lower rack so it was difficult for me to observe them. What I was able to observe is that the male was off and on (tails wrapped courting) daily, everyday. The female went into a long shed period in March and finally shed on April 4... which would give her a due date of July 18 if she is gravid. The male has been kept in with her ever since and will not court her. Fingers crossed.
The Harlequin female from Gray Rushin has been on medium rats for some time now and will be ready for larges in about 2 months. She will be set to go for the 07/08 breeding season. She was the largest in the litter and has grown quickly over the last year and a half with conservative feedings. She will be my female boa to raise from a neonate and breed... can't wait!
All pics were taken with flash bounced from the ceiling and were white balance calibrated.
