Wink Is My Boa Constrictor Pregnant?

How can I tell if my boa constrictor is pregant? I'm very new with snakes, and this is my first boa to own.

I got my male boa paired with a female boa from a freind which kept them together for at least a month hoping they would breed. I had them about 2 weeks before i could seperate them If the female happen to get pregnant how would i know?

Are there any general signs that show that a female boa constrictor is pregnant? Is there some kind of a test to give to see if the boa is expecting?

Thanks!

Yuck!! I wouldn't want to be the one checking that boa to find out if she was pregnant!!! Maybe you can just see if she is having weird cravings.

I wonder if you can feel the eggs in your boa if she is pregnant? It seems like you would be able to.

You'd probably want to have it checked by a vet. Thats the best bet i could think of.
