i have a female that is 102 days POS and i just got home from work and her eyes are bluing up. has anyone had any experience with this and did it mean anything as far as the birth? good or bad? thanks in advance for any info you can pass my way.

I asked the same question in March this year. My female shed on day 97 and gave birth on day 108. It had never happened to me but after some replies to my post, It seems to happen sometimes and with no ill effects. Just keep he nice and humid, I sprayed my females cage every morning during and after her shed. She gave birth to 25 babies and no slugs. Good luck and post some baby pics when you get 'em!

I would agree with Derek that the oddities in boa breeding are very common, I myself have a female who is on day 130 and i know she is gravid, she's huge and fiesty and always in heat conservation. She gave us healthy babies last year a little late but... The oddities are out there and i wouldnt worry about it. The boas will do what they have to do and when they are ready they will give you some little beauties... Good luck and let us know how it goes!

Sincerely,

Got a Salmon poss het bred by my albino male...she's 96 days out from POS and just went full blue today.....and now neither one of us are alone...yet we will still be nervous....no?

Heat's up, humidity is up, hopes are up.

Good luck!

Thanks to all the replys. especially Derek it eased my mind when i read your post. i've decided i'm not going to worry about it.you do everything you can and then the unpredictability of nature takes over. good luck with everyones breeding season and i'll post some pics when the nates arrrive.
