Day 29 no eggs pulling my hair!
I swear I saw ovulation pre shed and everything the female is bloated and rock hard. It's day 29 and I am starting to judge my sanity she doesn't look like she wants to lay anymore. When should I start to be worried.

Give it some time and don't worry...I had eggs laid this year at 23 days. In the past I have had it happen past 30 days. She'll get there :)

Lol lets hope so. When does one get worry about a female becoming egg bound.
Re: Day 29 no eggs pulling my hair!
i have a girl that laid well after 30 days closer to 40 and she laid 10 awesome eggs. so dont give up yet.

While the average is that female lay 27 to 35 days after Pre-lay shed, remember it is an average and is can also be longer.
My last clutch was laid 49 days after pre-lay shed.
Ball python breeding is all about patience ;)
Re: Day 29 no eggs pulling my hair!
This is my first year breeding. I didn't think I was going to get any eggs. I saw her ovulate, and she had her pre-lay shed on February 23rd. March 23rd came and went. April 23rd, came and went. May 4th, I open the tub and BOOM! Eggs!. I have to agree that ball python breeding requires a lot...and I mean a lot...of patience.
