That's Clover and OMG she looks sooooooo huge. Was laying fully on her back and started turning back rightside up when I opened the hide tub. Quick estimate on weight (weighed her and tub and subtracted weight of similar empty tub) puts her at 3800ish grams or 8 1/3 LBS!!

0.1 Wife (WC and still very fiesty)
0.2 kids (CBB, a big part of our selective breeding program)

LOL, to many snakes to list, last count:
26.49 BRB
20.21 BCI
And those are only the breeders

lots.lots.lots feeder mice and rats

OMG! That is one huge mama. You told a previous poster to have a ton of tubs ready, but you're the one that's going to need them! WOW! Good Luck!

Yeah and on top of all that, if she's this huge now, may be having early babies.

Dave,
...She looks great. So far this year I have one all blowed up looking like that but only a couple more that are seemingly gravid.
Good luck,
Jeff

Whoa.... definetely something cooking in there!

That seemed awfully quick, didn't Clover just start breeding a month ago? How long does it usually take for them to plump up like that from first(ish) breeding?

If one of my BRBs gets gravidized (technical term, lol)... how long do you suppose it would be before I notice? You said a month is unusual... what is the usual time frame?

The gravidizationalistic process seems to go on forever. Last year intro - POS was about three months.

But IMO the females were simply not ready for most of that time. I know Mike had his male hypo with Ann for one day! She was ready to go!!!

Thanks for the info. I hope at least one of my females has babies this year, but I'm not counting on it. But if I do get babies... I hope they are Flax & Sable's!!
