    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

At least it seems that way. I got some quick pictures of Myra this afternoon, she is my 50/50 Suri het albino that is on day 136 post ovulation.

She seems to be 'shrinking'; I've really started to notice it in the last few days...I've heard sometimes this happens right before the birth?

She's defenitely not as swollen as she was...I guess this happens when the babies have absorbed all their yolk, is this right, guys?

I hope it's gonna be soon...:D
 
Are you certain of the ovulation? I mean, did you witness it, or did you just notice she was bigger and start counting from the next shed? Many Boa will develop the follicles (pre-ov swell) and stay that way for some time before ovulation actually occurs. If you remove the stimulus, (the male presence) before the actual ovulation, the female may stay in that swollen state for a time, and reabsorb later, or may still ovulate. Many have mistaken this swell for actual ovulation, and assumed success, and end up pulling the male early.

If she did indeed ovulate, then she will drop babies if mating was successful, or slugs if it wasn't, when she is ready though.

I certainly hope it all goes well and she surprises you with a nice litter. If it is a worry to you, you can get an X-ray or ultrasound to see if there is embryonic development going on. May give you a better picture of what you are up against.


I wish you luck.
Rick
