Reptile & Amphibian Forums

Folks,
As part of a study being undertaken by a graduate student in my department, I am looking for accurate data on gestation time (either ovulation to parturition, or POS to parturition), and also litter size, including still borns and slugs.

I don't care if its one litter or 1000. If you have accurate date, we would love to get it. Also, we need to know which species it is from.
If anything comes of it that is worth publishing, your contribution will be fully acknowledged.

You can PM me or post directly to here. If you have larger datasets (excel spreadsheets for example) PM me and I will pass on my email address.

Thank you,

Warren

I'm glad to see that someone is studying this. As a first year Sand Boa breeder, I have been surprised that there seems to not be any references to the number of days past the POS, etc. as there is with the other species I've worked with and bred.

Is this study still ongoing? If so, I have a girl that I feel will deliver in the next couple weeks, and I have the tracking info. for her - including a witnessed copulation, probable ovulation, POS shed.
