Re: Sudden death after laying.
That's sad news. Sorry to hear it. Good luck with the remaining egg!
A few years ago I lost a corn snake soon after she laid slugs. (She had not bred with a male.) She had somehow developed an internal hemorrhage while laying, and I had no idea anything was wrong until I found her dead. :( Maybe that's what happened to your girl?

Re: Sudden death after laying.
Several years ago we had two females that had been with us for years raised them up from hatchlings. They bred laid eggs and about two weeks later just died. My only guess is that there was something congenital that the physical stress of breeding exasperated and it finally gave way, thus killing them.
Like other animals including humans they can have heart, brain, kidney, liver all kinds of problems. I remember Pete Kahl I think it was or maybe Ralph years ago telling me a story about a Lucy back when they were 100k passing in his hands from what was later found to be an aneurysm.
So you just never know when it's sudden and onset like that.
