Mom is normal and pissed off with me messing with them, that is her in that last pic, normally she is darker....dad is a summit line pastel salmon going into shed so his colors are dull in that pic but you get the idea....he is a male that does eat during breeding.
FloridaHogs 01-05-2009, 07:11 PM Congrats Jeff!! No surprises this year!
Wild Bill 01-05-2009, 07:32 PM That's one big pissed off girl!!! :lol: Congrats Jeff. :yessir:

JChandler 01-05-2009, 07:34 PM Thanks Jenea, Bill and Alan, was going to pull the male but thought better of it once I got that evil look from her....I'll wait a few days until he is out prowling and snatch him up...lol
No surprises either Jenea, if she would have done this last year I would have noticed...lol
That second pic really shows how big she is. Nice pics!
FloridaHogs 01-05-2009, 07:37 PM Sure you would have! :lol: You know she did it, because she had a litter :D

Varanus99 01-05-2009, 07:50 PM She looks big and pissed.
Good luck, brother.
Sputnik 01-05-2009, 08:18 PM Sweet swollen jelly beans, that's a sight.... I bet your smile is just as big! :cheers:
Congrats and continued good luck.... I have my fingers crossed for ya :yessir:
JChandler 01-05-2009, 08:28 PM Oh yeah I got a smile ear to ear about this one, more pastel salmons!!!
She is only a little over 5 foot, just like the male....really just a bit bigger from last year when she gave me a small litter....changed some feeding habits and meal sizes and bam got a serious ovulation, I am hoping it all goes smooth from here on out, fingers and toes are crossed for her!

I really like the sizes on them two, be interesting to see how big last years are once they get 2 years old. That male just hasn't got any bigger huh?
FloridaHogs 01-05-2009, 08:31 PM I thought ret tails were bigger than that in general...
JOHNS6068 01-05-2009, 08:49 PM Congrats Jeff..I hope you get a lot of babies :yessir:
Rapture 01-05-2009, 09:01 PM Nice Jeff, I like the head pattern on that girl.

JChandler 01-05-2009, 10:28 PM Thanks guys and gals, I am stoked on this project...looking for a bigger litter this year so I can be greedy and hold back all the salmons....:lol:

JChandler 01-05-2009, 11:27 PM Ok there is no missing that ov thats for sure.. Nice job Jeff I hear boas ain't no cake walk. Now pull that damn male so momma can get some rest...:lol:
LOL...no he can stay for the time being...she will let him know to get away.
Thanks Larry, this pair seems to know what to do and when to do it so far....
Last season I had a rough boa year, lost 2 adult females and my dumeril threw out a mess of slugs and one still born but this pair gave me a tiny litter of 5 babies, one stillborn and 2 slugs so seeing that surprise made it better!
Mrs. Sputnik 01-06-2009, 01:37 AM CONGRATS........know you have the big ear to ear grin right now
Congrats on the ovulation. I know how much you look forward to picking babies out of the goo! :lol:
JChandler 01-06-2009, 06:56 AM Thanks Liz and Kare!
Sidviciouser 01-06-2009, 10:27 AM I love pics like that, thanks for posting them and best of luck with it.
I want Tama to take pictures when you're getting the babies out! Practice your video skills Tama. This will be hilarious! (keep a bucket near! LMAO!)
Varanette 01-07-2009, 09:19 AM Oh Yea Baby.....Good luck! :D

We know the feeling Jeff. Our last season started off pretty much the same as yours! We did hit the odds on a small litter of 4 live with a visual blood boa :wamma: Had another small litter of hypo's but 3 key groups didn't take. The mots, the sabogaes and the second pair of pos. het bloods. :o(
Congrats on the up and coming litter!
JChandler 01-07-2009, 06:51 PM Thanks everyone :rockon:
AaronP 01-07-2009, 07:21 PM She's looking plump! I hope to have a litter myself in a few months :)
BryonsBoas 01-10-2009, 11:21 PM Nice Jeff. It always feels good to have a litter cooking.
Big Gunns 01-12-2009, 01:51 PM Way to go Jeff! I didnt know you had any Boas.. Guess I know where to look now!!
*****Big Gunns clears throat in massive neck******
Thar she blowwwwwsssss!!! Well, ok not just yet but she'sa biggun. Good luck with her Jeff.
There is no female that's a "Biggun" let's get that straight right now.:cool:
Ok there is no missing that ov thats for sure.. Nice job Jeff I hear boas ain't no cake walk. Now pull that damn male so momma can get some rest...:lol:
No they are not, but Big Gunns has news for the BLBC. He's a boa breeding expert.:wamma:
LOL...no he can stay for the time being...she will let him know to get away.

That's boas for yah. The highest highs and the lowest lows. Every year BG says he's gonna get out of them. EVERY SINGLE YEAR!!!!!

Congrats on the up and coming litter!
If you and the BF start being nicer to Big Gunns(send him gifts and things) he will give you some valuable tips to help your success. :lol:
