Could someone please answer my question?

My boa is getting ready to give birth anyday now.
1. What does this waxy stool look like? color?
2. She is starting to do some tight circles as if she is moving something down her belly. Plus some jerking movement. I have only seen her do this a couple of times. I was told this is a normal behaviour (spelling) for a gravid boa. Is this correct?

Any replys will be greatly appreciated.

Waxy stool .... im not totally sure myself as i have never really notice it and if i did didnt pay it ant attention .

as to her movements it to me sounds like shes starting to push the babies into postion to give birth. whats in her cage ? i would tryo tp provide a large container for her to birth in or some type of cover for her to go under. and then get ready for the lil bundles of joy to pop out. be readyto move fast as she will more thne likely not be a happy camper when she births and removing them could make for some FAST moving on your part
