    Female hasnt layed yet...

    My big normal hasnt layed eggs yet. Shes crazy swollen right now and really firm. Im pretty sure theres eggs in her. The thing is she shed at the end of march. We expected eggs about a month ago but they never came. Shes at the point where i can hold her by the middle and shes practically straight out like a 2x4. Hasnt shown signs of distress and displays all the typical prego snake behaviors. Havent noticed the glow but maybe its because shes away at a friends for breeding. Should i wait for another shed? Do some bps hold eggs longer than others after shed? Worried :/

    Did you or your friend witness ovulation? Has she lost weight on her topside? (is she somewhat triangular in shape?)

    Weve seen what we were pretty sure was ovy and building. Lots of locks. Refusing food. Now shes refusing males. She shed when expected . Lays upside down. Wraps the bowl. No eggs

    LOL! Gotta love it! They always prove you wrong or give in once you've lost hope.

    Congrats! & Nice looking girl! She actually looks a LOT like one of my norms. What did you breed to her?

    Yea i love her. In person shes alot more yelliw with beautiful flames.

    She was initially paired with pastel. Didnt see locks so we tried mojave. Then pin. Then spider... Lol shes a real hoochie. The same spider from my last clutch is the only witnessed lock. Im hoping for some mojos or pastels. I cant really do much with another spider but any of the other morphs would be new additions to my collection.
