Ball Python eggs with no mate

Parthogenesis Reproduction from an ovum without fertilization. It's happened a couple time's to a few of our member's. OP I wouldn't candle or remove the egg unless you have a way to incubate it yourself.

Guys...cots not Jesus it's parthenogenesis. Basically a hermaphrodite that fertilized herself. It was done with a rattlesnake and the baby is being kept to see if it is genetic. Anyways, still awesome

Thanks all I will leave her be and see what happens

Yeah, that's fertile, but the egg's not in great shape. You might want to see if you can get an incubator set up for it.

wow cool, but that egg needs some help. try to spray the cage down some and look for a way to make a incubator, Why is the mom off the egg?
