    sure your bp does have a room mate, say a chicken? :)

    look like slugs to me, and those don't look like urates.

    Yup I'd say slugs.:(


    You could candle them to check if you like.

    Did you notice any ovulation or anything?

    Alright... now that we know they are slugs. What do i do? She doesn't seem real happy about us poking around in there. She actually hissed at me, which she has only done once in 14 years. Is she going to do this again? The only breeding experience I have is with horses.. quite a long ways from reptiles. She appears to be "empty" as she was climbing around and her belly was quite concave. When do I feed her agin? She has had little interest in food over the past few months. And how would I know she is ovulating? this is a lot to deal with on a Monday. :) And I can gaurentee, NO MALE. NO
    other snakes for that matter.

    And the last stupid question..... Does she want a man? At this point of my life I can believe anything.

    wash her off with mild soap, clean the enclosure completely.


    offer food weekly as normal.

    ps throw away the slugs.

    Hi,


    Well there are other far more experienced but heres the answers I've read;

    Remove them and wash out the cage and her to remove all scent of them.

    Feel along her underside to make sure you can't feel any left inside.

    Check around the othjer threads to see how to get her started eating again after "removing the eggs" but yeah they tend to get a bit more stroppy I've been told.

    Shes been quite the finicky eater her whole life, so I am sure this is going to be interesting. Out of curiosity, why remove the scent of the slugs? Will she be okay to remove them?
