Here's updated pics of my female solomon island ground boa. She's such a sexy snake ;) Hopefully one day she'll give me pretty babies :)

Gorgeous boa, a species I have had alot of interest in but still don' t own. Great to see you and a few others raise and breed these giving alot of choices to pick from. I have to get me some soon, maybe this year....just need to find out who in Canada will have some offspring.

She looks great! I just got another new female Soloman today, just got back from the airport. She's Huge!
Also I noticed you have 1.0.1 Solomans. I'm not sure if you know this or not, but they are very accurately sexed by spurs alone at a very young age, if not at birth. Males have huge spurs, and females have little to no spurs at all. Just thought I'd let you know that because I thought you might not know (because of the unsexed one).

Thanks for the compliments guys!

I haven't gotten either probed but this one was sold to me as a female so I'm assuming she is. Thanks for the info about sexing them I wasn't aware of that :)

I'm willing to bet money on it that one in the picture is female, by her size/girth alone. Male SIGB's don't get very big at all, and definately not very girthy. I wouldn't even bother probing either of them, it's pretty much 100% accurate by spurs alone on Solomans.
How old/big are yours?
The one female I just got is about 4ft and 2000grams.
The other two females are about a year and a bit and probably about 200-250grams.
And a male that is about the same.
