 Breeding question

not exactly a breeding question but the boas allready pregnant.

Right, me and my boyfriend have pair of brbs together, everything is fine up untill now, shes growing nicly, you can see the bumps in her where the babys are and shes incubating them fine.

They were put together on the 12/12/07. shes been eating fine untill a few weeks ago.

She also shed about 6 weeks ago.

The worry is, shes now not eating, and her backbone is becoming more prominant, tried her on mice/rats/warm/cold and she is still not taking.

Is it normal for them to go off their food at this point in time?

Any adive woud be useful.

Cheers, Sam

Yes, It’s normal for her to stop eating at some point because of the pregnancy so don’t be to alarmed. Once she has her baby’s she will eat again. They sometime eat the slugs too when their having their babies to get back some of the nutrient’s they’ve lost from being pregnant.

its just her spine is so visable yet, and she could have anywhere between 1 - 4 months left.
