Hi guys, what a day yesterday was!!!

It started when we got up and checked the incubator and found this...

and this....

and here are two of the three that are out, there are loads more with just their little heads popping out....

first a little motley....

and next a little het motley...

....and if that wasn't good enough in the evening we were doing the rounds and found our hogg island boa giving birth!!!! Tho we think we have disturbed her has there is only 3 babies, 2 still borns and 5 slugs.....and there should be more as she is a big girl so she is being left alone in the dark for 24 hours so she can finish.....but here is a quick pic of the three little ones..

Cheers Stu Smile

I would think the hogg still has more in her (she,s a big girl at 7ft!) but I made the cardinal error and disturbed her when she was in labour and I don't think she liked that too much lol....nearly ended up with a love bite on my face lol
Just leave her alone now and see what happens

Cheers all Smile

Looked in on her this morning and no more babies Sad

but we will see....

The odd thing is she dropped these on day 86-87 after her POS....I wasn't expecting them for a while yet......has anyone else had a boa drop this early before??
