Belly Up!

Sunshine Jul 05, 2006 09:16 PM

I thought this was a cool looking posture. It's time to get anxious.....I'm doing better with it this year, a bit more calm.

And my newest baby from Rio Bravo Reptiles....waited 2 years for this one. I have to admit....I really like the Hogs.

Congrats on the coming babies. I have to admit I thought you meant hognose until I saw the pic (my internet is slow), hognose and BRB are my favs.

indicator of being gravid, only more certain indicator....lil babies slithering around in the birthing slime!

Great pic, keep us posted. I have several I'm starting to pace on myself. I love/hate this time of year!!

just getting comfortable? I've always been curious about this behavior in boas and pythons (do other families do this?). Did you play with your temp gun while she was inverted? Be curious as to the temp of her belly. Thats a great photo Linda; can't wait to see your babies.
