couldnt of done it with out your help.those vids helpedi think i watched like 45 second of it and was like duhh ran and got my probs and ky and jumped right in for that egg.thanks again:D:snake:

Yup. When she's 100%, you can throw some nice codom or double codom males in there with her and get some nice babies.

One man's trash is another man's treasure. If a female will produce eggs under horrible conditions I figure that she will do great the next time around. I'd work on getting her over to rats in this next year. With the big dried up egg out of her I wouldn't be surprised if her feeding response doesn't pick up.

Any time :)

she eats with no problem.the problem i had was a adult mouse was to heavy to eat when i first got her but now shes on med size mice and now i know she has eggs and soon all will be out ill try the hopper rats.weird thing is i fed her the day befor and she was ready to shed and boom today she lays a egg.realy didnt even or should i say even knew she was gravid.till today.

That big old egg was probably why she was doing so poorly and not eating in the first place. I think that she had ovulated way long ago before he got her and that egg mummified from being in her for many months. Once he started feeding her again that would have been what gave her enough strength to get it out.

it looks like there are 3 more eggs in her.maybe 4 wont know till she starts going again.shes also sheding to so i could amagine her discomfort.im going to keep a eye on her.going to be a long night or should i say morning.

This is an interesting thread, I'm glad she got that one to pass:)! Seems like the store owners didn't know jack poop. She also may have gotten preggo from being kept with a male.. I could see that happening since that pet store doesn't seem very knowledgeable.

For now I'd leave her be. Sometimes females don't want to lay until they are completely left alone. I'd take a peak at her tomorrow night to see her progress. You did excellent on getting her to pass that egg! I hope she passes the others with ease.

Good luck to you and your girl. Now that she's started moving them down and gotten that big old dried up thing out it might get a little easier for her.

Then you can see how skinny she really is. Just looking at her she doesn't look gravid. She probably went a long time without eating because of that mess of eggs.

I've gone into pet stores and seen a half dozen adult and subadult snakes stuffed into one cage. But when a snake swells up and quits eating....why would they even suspect that it might be gravid...how could that have possibly happened?

Yeah that's completely crazy. I suppose most people not into breeding snakes won't spot out a gravid snake or even know the signs of a gravid snake. This definitely shows to tell that they don't even care about another living organism, just another animal in their store to sell.
