This beautiful girl went from this...

Cool on the pregnancy. I just saw the biggest swelling I have ever seen in a tree boa yesterday from my pair that dropped the year nice reds on 07. Lets hope she does something similar this year.

That tiger is possibly one of the coolest looking tigers there is. To be honest, I am notmally not a huge fan of tigers, or yellows...but obviously I was wrong about myself because there is nothing about those snakes that didn't make me just sit and stare. Good luck on that!

Do you always see the females darkening that much during pregnancy? Do they get back to normal after giving birth?

I'm not Matt but I can say that I've seen some darken so much they don't even look like the same snake. After having babies, the females seem t oget back to their original color about a month later.

They definitely do darken and most of the times they go back...but not always they way they were before their first pregnancy.
