So Im trying to decided what to do with the Dam of Brendan Magee's Patternless litter. I've had her for about 3-4 months now got her fat and ready for a male, but the question is what direction should I go in? I really don't know what i should breed her too and having a male big enough as she's a beast. Any advice or info would be greatly appreciated.

Fat boas are not healthy boas and generally deliver sub-standard litters and sometimes die. Take a season to get that girl in shape. Muscle tone should be the driving factor when deciding whether to breed a female or not - not obesity.
Good luck with her!

She is by no means obese, let me re-phrase that. She is at prime breeding weight for her size. from what I was told she hasn't been bred in a few yrs. I have been putting weight back on her as she was alittle "loose" when i got her. My question was more of what i should try breeding to her really, I don't really know what direction i should go in. And I'm not going to breed her without any idea of what im going for. I do have an albino motley and a double dose hypo harlequin.
