Well, guys and gals as I have told you before; " This girl has been a real mystery for me. " She is over 13ft and had 66 gorgeous babies back in March of 2004 for Pete Bandre of " Incredible Pets. " She has pretty much acted like a normal Boa and has eaten and shed twice and I never caught Ovulation, but I was gone alot too. Pete said: " She never really got that big and she ate and had two intermediate sheds with him also. " As you can see, in this photo that I just took, she is really showing some signs of pregnancy distress. If you notice, she has her body leaned to the side and has been doing this for almost two months and never did this " leaning while curled " before or at least not very often at all. Now, every time she curls up, she does this " leaning. " I have produced and seen my share of gravid Boas, but I have never bred a Boa this huge and if she keeps the same schedule as she did in 2004 and is indeed gravid, this will be the month? It will also prove " once again " that the P.O.S. and other theories may work some of the time, but not all of the time. I hate to sound like a " Novice, " but this girl is really got me wondering; " especially the leaning, wich most Boas I have had and seen do, well into their gestation. " One thing about it, if she has babies, they should be some real nice ones........Johnson Herp
