• In case most of you have not noticed, I made changes to the donation amounts as well as the durations for all of the paid membership levels. Things are winding down here, and this seems to be the most prudent way to deal with the "end of life" period of this site.

    Contributor level members - $10 per 30 days
    Sponsors - Eliminated
    Benefactor level members - $25 per 30 days
    Endowment level members - $50 per 30 days

    On July 1, 2027, all paid memberships will be closed.

    On August 1, 2027, FaunaClassifieds will be terminated.

    Only change I expect that might take place is when I can get around to figuring out when the amount of money I would have to refund for the yearly paid memberships becomes less than the monthly expense of leasing my server, THAT date might be the termination date for the site.

Question for those who breed. Do you have a ratio for males and females. For example one male to breed two female or vise versa or is it a 1:1 ratio. Thanks
 
I try to keep it 1 to 1. Although I will consider using a male with a 2nd female if he is in good shape. (I've only done it a few times in 15+ years).
 
Thanks I’m thinking of getting a second female and flip flop them each season so they get a year off between breeding. I’d be using the same male for both.
 
That's a common practice. I always give a female a year off after having a litter, keep in mind that the occasional female will still cycle on her own regardless of our plans.

Male boas can be really finicky at times, so I generally had a few more males than females in case a male wasn't in the mood. Most of my pairings were VERY specific though, so it was more just finding the right male for the right female and crossing fingers they like each other. I spent three years attempting before I got one particular pairing to go but it was worth the wait.
