Updated baby boa pics

So heres a few shots of the two that are doing well.

This little gal, I was convinced, we were going to loose. She retained her yolk for 4 days and she wouldn't eat for the longest time.
She decided one day she wanted to be a big girl and has been eating like a champ ever since!

Heres the first baby out and about. Quite the little staple gun at first, but has mellowed out wonderfully. Hopefully he outgrows that deranged boa look.

After seeing these babies, its really a shame we can't breed Sylvia any more. She must have some hellacious hidden genes.

Thanks for letting me show off the wee ones!

why cant you breed the female anymore? did she pass?

Thanks, Kyle. She is really a stunning girl. I am so glad she pulled through for us.

Robin- This particular female has been bred four times now. Every other time, She just had upwards of 30 slugs and stillbirth. This litter had five stillbirths and four live babies. Shes been with proven males all four times, but just can't seem to carry through a pregnancy well. So we've decided to retire her. Now shes just a fat, content pet.

Thank you, Melanie!
Theres two others in the litter that we're still having to work with, both have very different markings. One of them is almost completely black. How they all came from the same parents is beyond me. My daughter calls them Sylvia's Skittles babies.
