How is everything? I'm so concerned for you, and can't imagine the stress you're going through... have you called the vet yet?

gave her a place to soak but she ignored it. Finally soaked her overnight myself. no change yet. The slugs that are still in there, not anywhere near the vent. She looks about ready to pass the meal she ate, here's hoping it helps get the rest moving along. If still nothing, I'll see if my boa breeding pal can come over this weekend with the ultrasound. I'll be speaking with my vet next week, regarding my sick boa Cinnamon, so I'll mention this issue and see what he thinks (I'm sure his answer will be 'bring her in for an exam'... lol)

Do you want me to send you my doppler? I know that's of little possible use, but if you want it none the less, I'd be happy to lend it to you. Have you considered a full sized meal? Like a jumbo rat?

Thank for the offer Katie, that's very nice of you. If my friend can't come over, I'm sure the vet would be happy to check her out (he loves taking my money, heh).

I want to share some GOOD news for once.. the one little baby that was born shed a few days ago and last night I offered him/her the first meal, a f/t mouse hopper. Wouldn't take if off tongs but I left in the cage for a few hours and ta-da - it was eatten! yay! I love it when the babies take f/t right away.

Sweet! Always nice to get a little cheer from an otherwise worrisome situation.


Are you sure she retained something? Just got to thinking some more, is a Doppler going to show more then if there is a viable offspring? Slugs don't make much sound I'll wager. But an experienced vet can tweak X-Ray settings to get slugs to show up just fine. LINK
Or possibly ultrasound would show it too?? IDK.

Good luck at the vet. Keep us posted.

no updates, no changes. I'll just keep soaking her every few days. Got swamped this weekend and wasn't able to call my friend with the ultrasound yet. Life! ug.
