A little late

My snow boa was at 105 days Apr 1st, she droped her plug 7 days ago and she still has not had her babies. So she is on day 129, should I be concerned?

Thanks

Just a few questions:
Was the shed date definitely after her ovulation? She could have shed before she ovulated which is why your dates might be off. Did the "plug" have a waxy look to it - you didn't happen to take a picture of it did you? How does she look now - is she still "plump" in the middle & end section or has she been getting thinner in those sections? Can you post some pictures of her now and maybe a month or two ago to compare? Has she been cruising the cage looking for a spot to have her litter or is she still hugging the heat and/or maintaining her heat conservation position?
