Well my boa gave birth today rght on schedule, 103 days after POS. It was a slugfest.

We ended up with four perfect babies and all four are hypo.

She had 18 perfect slugs and did everything right on schedule so I think the little male we used didn't quite get the job done.

We didn't have any background on this hypo from the previous owner and since this breeding he has been sold. Now I am wondering if he was possibly a super hypo because all four babies were hypo. If he wasn't homozygous we had extremely good luck with the odds on these four boas...
