    Re: Female is way passed her due date.

    I’m glad I’m not the only one seeing this. I have one that was due on 2/29, and she still hasn’t gone. No second pre lay shed though. This is my first season, so I’m still very much learning that they do things on their own time. My girls don’t follow rules very well 😂

    Was hoping for eggs today. Still nothing. Sometimes she's laying like she's about to lay, other times she looks like normal. No other behavioral changes.

    It can take a few weeks. This isn't the first time I've had them go through a 2nd prelay, but this is the longest it has ever taken for me.

    No. Still nothing. Doesn't even look gravid anymore. Can't get an x-ray because school is on lock and my buddy with an ultrasound machine is always "busy." So, I continue waiting. Still refusing food and won't copulate with a male so idk.

    No. Shes starting to lay with her belly up though. I've been making her swim in the tub for a bit. Someone I trust said that the swimming motion stimulates the same muscles that are used for birthing and it seems to be working. Every time she's in the tub she farts or passes a thin liquid. It's almost 30 days passed the second shed so maybe this will be the time.

    I did sell a few other snakes to buy an ultrasound machine. I found a nice one on ebay for extremely cheap so I have money set back too for a surgery if need be.

    She finally started laying today. Checked on her this morning and saw an egg or two. It looked like she was still laying so I shut the tub and will check later tonight. She had 7 or 8 that I could see in the x-ray. The ones that I could see are viable.
