fleeting moment because she had been growing so fast. I never "power fed" her during her entire life. I offered her frozen/thawed food items about once a week like I did all my other boas at the time. However, she just seemed to take every thing I fed her and used it towards growing. She was REALLY thick at 18 months old too.

However, we decided against it because we didn't think she was sexually mature and I didn't want anything to happen to her because she is the first boa I ever owned. We also had our hearts set on trying for Hypo Jungles the next year so we didn't want to jeopardize that chance either.

Like I said, it was a fleeting though and we didn't even bother with attempting it due to a few various factors. I have heard of other breeders successfully breeding and producing babies from 18 month old females.

Thanks,
Celia
