    if you think she has an Egg and you dont know what to do..

    Get her to a Vet if sometime has passed.

    They could inject her and suck out the contents of the egg to make it passable? and or have to cut her open?

    Not sure.. ?? im not a vet i am just speaking of my experiences...

    Now she seems to be laying inverted on the spot where the egg is so perhaps she will lay it soon. Hopefully.

    I would try a warm soak and gentle try to move the egg down after soaking for a little bit. warm, not very warm or hot. if you can't get the egg to move. it will most likely need to be aspirated. I read a post where someone only removed some fluid and the snake pass the egg and it even hatched. not 100% sure but it might of been the sloan brothers. anyway, try the soak if that doesn't work, then it will most likely need to be aspirated before it causes death. and from what I read, don't let a vet cut the snake open, usually ends with a bad result.

    I've done a 2 warm soaks and I am able to move the egg closer to the bum, but there seems to be resistance, so what I did is moved the egg backwards a bit. Im hoping that if I back the egg off a part that may be twisted, it may untwist and she will be able to pass it. When I try and push it to the bottom, it stopes like an inch or 2 away from the bum and wont go anymore. I feel so bad :(

    so the egg is moving. I can't see there being a twist that far down if she already pass the other eggs. if you can try to contact corey woods. he's a member on here or google his name. he is also from canada. good luck don

    I actually have him on my facebook and have already contacted him. Thanks for the idea tho. I hope she can pass it on her own. Some people have said they have had girls take up to a week to lay the last one so here's hopeing.
