Re: Restless boa

It's part of nesting behaviour and totally normal. I would advise against feeding at this point as well.

Re: Restless boa

Thanks Andy I wondered wether it was because she was hungry or nesting. Behaviour,she not eaten for the past two weeks and even then it was only something small compared to her normal
Much appreciated

Re: Restless boa

Usually it's best to hold off feeding pregnant boas about 60 days after the POS. Sometimes pushing food through the system can cause issues with early birth. Everything sounds like it's right on track, Richard. I'm excited for you buddy!
