I came home tonight around 9:30 and Rose looked incredibly deflated. I checked the back corner of the cage and saw a few heads poking out and I think I yelped like a puppy after you accidently step on its tail! There are some interesting patterns and some others with GREAT color. I haven't been able to get a full head count because several are still in their placentas, but I've got 15 so far (I'm guessing maybe 16-18 total if I'm lucky). NO SLUGS!!!
A lot of people here have seen Rose over the years and have wished me well with her. Thank you all so much. This means so much to me. It's my first litter ever and my first attempt breeding her and I couldn't be more proud. She's been with me the longest, a full 6 years.
I introduced the males to her cage on 12/23/06, her POS was on 3/31/07, 105 days would have been 7/14 and she had them today on 7/29, 120 days POS. All the babies seem to have absorbed their yolks and have no bulging bellies! This couldn't have been more perfect.
Anyway, I'm going to get going. I can't take my eyes off of that cage and even my girlfriend has her face stuck in front of it! Oh, I used to think to myself that it was a bit humorous when people would come straight to the boa forum after a litter was born to announce it, but now I understand. You guys are the only people who can REALLY relate to it.
Thanks for reading!

What a fantastic litter! I am so happy for you! We've been watching Rose grow and mature over the years and it's wonderful to see the beautiful babies she has now given you! How about posting some photos of her and the sire to these babies?!

Got 'em all set up individually. After the pics, I sprayed 'em down and threw in a water bowl. They're good to go til they shed. There are a few that have the aberrant pattern that the sire contributed, a couple that look like Rose, but there are several who look like a combination of the two. I think some of these will be REAL standouts! Thanks again everyone for your congratulatory messages, I REALLY appreciate it!

Rose looks HORRIBLE! She did SUCH a great job. She's only a little over 5.5 feet, but she's 6 years old and was SOLID muscle when I decided to try her this year. It's hard to argue with results. 15 perfect babies!!!
ROSE AS A BABY
SIRE
got some head striping and aberrant saddling going on here
minor striping, nice color
minor aberrancies

Nice color, cool pattern!
minimal aberrancies
elongated saddles. Contrast should be great!
I REALLY like this one!
It's going to be hard to beat this one as a juvie and adult!
6 more to come...

This one is SWEET!
I think this one has the best "classic" pattern of all of them
Nice mix of the parents
Looks like the pattern on this one caught the spray of a buckshot!
I could be wrong, but I think this one will have the best color of all
Last but not least...
Hope you all like them
