I'm not the best person to answer this...

but since no one else has yet, I would remove the male

if you can. Could you set up a temp. rubbermaid for him

with heat pad and water bowl until the move? I believe

someone has left the male in thru the boa's gestation (I remember

seeing post about that) and the female gave birth ok, but I

believe they removed the male about 2 weeks before her due date.

I don't know an actual reason to remove the male, I just figured:

1. so he doesn't stress the female out, which could possibly

cause her to drop the babies early

2. so there's not another full-grown boa in with the babies which

could squish them when born

3. so they don't compete for the best spot in the tank.

(My male would always take the warm end and my female

would go off into the cool end sometimes, after her POS and I

removed him she went to the hot end and hangs out there almost

all the time, I think she was intimidated by him and didn't like

to lay together... just my take on things..)

Sorry I can't help more.

I think it would be best to take him out, if you can't tho

at least try to take him out a week or so before you expect

the babies to be born.

Good luck
