Congratulations Adam! Those are some really nice Motleys and Supers. Chris is right on the deli cup. When we get a baby like that we will dip the deli cup into a mild virosan solution and very carefully scoop the baby into the cup while the cup is sideways. Start with the goop and tail first and use your hand dipped in the solution. Keep the deli cup in the sweater box with the babies. Sometimes the baby will climb out when it feels its ready. We wont tie it until the next day, after its had 24 hours to soak. Plain dental floss is perfect with an inch of excess on each end.

The first 24 hours for a baby boa is the most critical. He/she will either join the litter huddle in a couple days or hang off on its own and you will know its not feeling great. But, that Super Motley looks like it has a really good chance in my opinion.

Good luck Adam and Congrats again!

John
