Dumerils Boas
It is Breeding Season for Dumerils here in South Africa now.
My pair have locked, so the long wait begins for babies in February.

Re: Dumerils Boas
Thank You All, they are a seven year old pair, but have not been overly successful when it comes to breeding. I bred them for the first time at 4 years old and got 13 Slugs. Bred them again at 5 years old and got 1 live baby, 7 dead babies and 6 slugs. Bred them again at 6 years old and got 2 live babies, 1 dead baby and 7 slugs. Did not breed them at 7 years old, and am now trying them again at 8 years old.
Just a side note, they give birth to live young, and do not lay eggs.

Re: Dumerils Boas
Whoohoo, it definitely looks like the lock was positive. In the lock pics, the male is actually the fatter of the two.
Here are some pics of the female definitely showing signs of gravidity.
Signs of wanting to give birth would be a general restlessness, indicated by the female roaming the enclosure and the whole body mass seeming to have moved down to the Cloaka, excuse spelling.

Re: Dumerils Boas
Thanks Cliff, what I am going to do is take another pic tomorrow, it being the 1st of September, and then I will take update pics on the 1st of each successive month, and post here, to create a photographic history of progress until she gives birth.

Re: Dumerils Boas
The adults are around the 5,5 to 6 foot mark.
I will try to remember to take the pics tonight, for the series.

Re: Dumerils Boas
Thank You All, I got my lazy rear end into motion this passed weekend and took a pic of the girl.
I have also noticed that she will rather lay with her body sort of folded in half now, than with the lower half curled as in the previous pic.
I really hope that this is happening.
