    Hey Deb, do you know if the 4 eggs hatched out fine? Also did Bertha ever breed again?
    This is an awesome story.

    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming "WOO HOO what a ride!"

    About a snake they've owned for 25 years that laid eggs. Can you imagine that surprise. I am very sorry to hear about you girl. Even though there aren't any other reptile vets near you, driving an hour or two to see another one will probably be worth it. You could always call first to see if they can aspirate the eggs before you make the drive out.

    Good luck, I hope you don't loose your girl.

    That's nuts. Keep us updated on this, this is sort of a big deal.

    Re: Ball Python Egg Bound

    Lets see,

    The vet can administer fluids directly to the snake, the vet can administer muscle relaxants to the snake, the vet can (hopefully ) feel if he is about to tear the oviduct because it has become twisted in the period she has been trying to lay, the vet can, in needed, actually perform an operation that can remove the eggs directly from the oviduct rather than having to rely on it getting to the vent.

    You can ......?

    Take the snake to a good reptile vet - I gave you a list of them in the other thread. Get a local vet to do a phone consult with one of them if there are none near you.

    This is what rescuing an animal usually entails - expensive vet visits.
