Most of the 17 babies have either shed, or are cloudy so I'm happy. A few took their first meal last night - defrost with no problems. What little strikers! I wasn't expecting that to be so easy, but i'm sure some of them will give me a bit of bother update on baby boas 772154

Here's some freshly shed babies. Lady in first pic has had a rat pup, and the last girl still has a leg sticking out of her mouth if you look closely. Sorry about the terrible pics....dave (aka rover) took them..haha!
Mum is still a bit of a headcase, so will allow her another feed before disturbing her to take pics...

thanks guys, altho pics are terrible - i will take more and make sure to resize on photobucket before posting Very Happy
The majority of them seem to have widow's peak saddles on neck, and lot's have a H on their tail as well..
Must put up pics of mum when she chills a little - see what you guys think. She's a very clean boa with a yellow tinge, and has a gorgeous rich yellow belly. Lots think she's a pastel, but one way or another she's the nicest 'common' boa i've seen - despite me being biased!

Nothing beats a bunch of squiggly baby boas at the bottom of a cage!!! Good job on producing some beauties!

sorry guys, been offline for a while (not like me!)
Thanks for compliments, will get new pics up real soon - and will include mum and dad! Some babies are doing great and have had two sheds and a few feeds, others not so great, but hey, that's life. I'm glad i got any at all Very Happy
