Hey Rick,

Sorry about those sand boas. I'm really starting to grow a liking to those little guys and might add a couple to my boa collection in the future.

Thanks for the info. I didn't know reaborption only took place in the ovaries. After thinking about it, the swelling I noticed on the 2nd girl might very well have been her Pre-Ov Swell, which was about 1 month ago this week. I kept the male in with her throughout all this time, and will give it a couple more weeks to see what happens. Also, this girl is a fairly solid 7 footer, so I don't know if she'd really want me feeling around to see if she's reabsorbing her follicles. She's nice as can but I just don't want to mess with her too much during this time of year.

As for the 1st girl, I'm really worried that she might slug out on me. Just have a bad "gut" feeling. Counting from her POS date, she's due the 1st week of June (if she's gravid at all). I just hope she makes it thru ok.

Thanks again for the info.

Jay
