Whats does it mean when a female goes into shed only a week after a male has been in there with her? And another pair the male and female went into shed the second week together?

Thanks
Marc

It's normal for boas to go into a shed cycle after introduction. It doesn't "mean" anything. It's just something that happens.

So, unless you boas shed "just prior" to introduction, you can expect to see this first shed cycle start about 1 to 3 weeks after introduction.
