Re: Will the MOTHER ball python eat her babies when they hatch
No - ball pythons eat rodents. I incubate the eggs artificially, so they are removed the day she lays.

Congratulations on your babies, but you really should have been getting this information during the two months she's been caring for them, or even better, before you decided to breed her. Here is the sticky on hatchling care. Read every sticky you can on this site (at the top of each sub-forum thread list).

i have read every thing i can find on ball pythons and pastel pythons from buying to breeding and evrything about hatch normally with the mother. There is so much more i need to know. I'll try to poist some pictures this week. Is there anything i need to do to help these little guys get out of thier shell?

normals to pastels there all the same kind of snake. There isnt a lot of people that still let the mother incubate her own eggs. You can take the mother out if you want to prevent her from possible crushing her young but she wont be happy about it. Some people cut there eggs some dont so its kind of up to you.

1) how did you acquire this gravid snake? Do you have a pair housed together? How exactly did you get into this situation??
2) i agree with annarose to read the sticky
3) the momma will be protective of her eggs. You should remove her to make it easier to remove the eggs
4) have all the snakes pipped? If so, they should crawl out, then you should place them into their own homes. If not, i would look up some videos on youtube about how to "cut" ball python eggs
