Egg stuck, help!

So our big female laid 8 eggs, and after we put them in the egg box we realized that she had at least one or maybe two eggs left in her. It's not all the way down, but maybe 2 inches above the cloaca.

It's been 48 hrs and she still hasn't moved them a bit. We put her in water and tried gently helping her, but nothing happens! :(
Will she pass them eventually? What to do? Getting a little panicked here..
We probably messed her up by removing the eggs to early, should we put them back?

I would be a little more patient I have had a female lay her first and last eggs 5 days apart. Give it a few more days, you might want to give her a warm bath in the meantime.

If a week as gone by and still nothing consult with a vet there will either be a need for Oxytocin or egg aspiration.

Ok we have put her in warm water, let's hope she can fix it! Thanks a lot!

It's been a week now and i don't think they've moved at all! How long can we wait before something has to be done?!
We don't want her to die! :tears:

Its time for veterinarian intervention. Make sure you take her to someone who is qualified to operate on her, and get your checkbook ready. After a week shr is not going to just pass it on her own

whoa wait a miniute. Have you tried feeding her yet? If she takes food those "eggs" may not be eggs. They could be big urates. Before you let anyone cut that snake open or "massage the eggs out", make sure you have an x-ray done. Eggs will be obvious on x-rays.
