>>I believe there is a good chance your female is still gravid. Females slim down noticably a week or so before dropping the litter, due to the babies spreading along the birth canal. I have also noticed my own boas that feed through gestation to urinate and deficate prior to brith. This clears any obstructions prior to parturition.
>>Good luck and keep us posted. You may be very surprised ina few days time. Has she passed the waxy plug yet?
