This might be the saddest part!

After I signed up for the Slug Gang below I read the other posts. Seems even the Boas do not realize they are having slugs as they try to push them around and get them moving.

So I guess I need we all need to remember.. as sad as it is for us it must be even worse for the Boas.

However.. it might be just as sad if they have a perfect litter and then we get in there and take them away. Guess we will never know.

TGIF!!

I do wonder what goes on in their minds or if it's just an instinct with no feeling behind it.
I do think the saddest part is we will never know.
TGIF indeed.

this makes me wonder abour our ball python female..she laid her eggs this morning and as soon as we took them to the incubator it seemed as if she was looking for them...I think next year I will try and research how to let her incubate them herself..It did make me sad to see her wandering back and forth
