Okay,

Although I'd love to be an expert on boas, I am not. I've only bred them a couple of times and haven't had a female go for me in 3 years.
I have a het albino female this year that is acting strange. She is HUGE and getting fatter everyday in the back end and skinnier in the front end. Good signs I hope. That is not the strange part yet.

Anyway, I don't have a shed date on here because one of the guys (me) cleaning out the cage forgot to write the shed date down. It was in Nov-Dec range.

The problem is: She is going INTO a shed now.

In my opinion, she is just too big to wait 105 days from this shed or even half of that.

My question:
Has anyone had experience with boas shedding before birthing or near birthing? OR am I supposed to wait another several weeks.

Any opinions or experience would be appreciated.

Thanks,
-Jeff
