Here is this very large Candoia bibroni bibroni (Fiji Boa) who was put in with my small males in October 2009. They stayed together and were seen copulating for about 4 weeks, separated mid November 2009. She's not my snake, but came back to me for the last couple of month while her owner was away, and she's certainly put on weight.

I'm hoping she's gravid, but I've never done this before and she's such a big (and greedy) snake I'm not certain whether she's gravid or just eating a lot. She certainly isn't fasting!

Here are some pics: opinions welcome.

Pre-mating Oct 2009
