Do they roll??

Snakesunlimited1 May 20, 2010 12:08 AM

So I introduced a male to my female a couple weeks back and noticed at least 6-8 lock ups since then. Today my girl is under the heat (she never is on the hot end) and she is half rolled on her side. I know my blackheads do this when gravid but never noticed any of my boas do it in the past. So is this something that boas do when gravid that I have just missed?? I have only bred boas a couple times so I am sure I could have missed it. Just curious...

Well mine looked more like your second pic last night but then this morning the male was all over her again. I was going to pull him but now I guess I will leave him in there. She is in shed too. Guess you got to get it done when you are in the mood. HAHA

Oh and nice pics!!
