I just got my new waigeos in and they look great. They're all much smaller than the female I had though. I got 4.2 and one of the females had already given birth to dead babies after being imported so I guess she was of breeding age. She wasn't drastically bigger than the males and the other female, but her head was much larger, probably 3x the size of the other boas' heads. My female, Daisy, has a head much larger than any of these and is a lot thicker (but she has been eating fuzzies). The other new female I got is about the same size and proportion as the males which are all about the same. In the pic with 3, the female is on top so you can see she's about the same size as the males. I used my hand for size reference, can you guys give me some idea whether or not these are full grown? I assumed the males were adults and the female was a subadult, but I'd like more opinions.
