    when will she drop her eggs ?

    Hello .Could use some help. We have a ball python who is gravid . She did her pre lay shed on march 1st. Its been 30 days today no eggs. She has been very restless and laying inverted for the past 4 days. This is our first time breeding we have had the 2 snakes for 3 years were all ready and set up for her eggs. One thing she has done in the last 2 days is hide her head ??. how long could it take her to lay her eggs. she doesnt look overly stressed out or struggling....

    Funny thing about all of these "rules" we have for snake breeding. The snakes don't read the same ones!! She will lay when she wants to. LOL...not making fun or anything but these guys (gals) never do anything exactly like we think they should. As long as she is not acting like she is stressed out or anything, I would just check once every morning and once at night before bed and leave her alone. We have had girls go 50+ days after shedding....

    Do humans give birth in exactly 9 mo all the time? Get back with us after 55 days or so.

    Re: when will she drop her eggs ?

    thank you for your reply . may i ask for no negative comments. Like i stated before this is our first time breeding so we want to make sure were doing this right. Not trying to sound rude but if i knew the answer i wouldn't of asked. I've heard 21 -27 days. That's why we asked. I do care about my snake and just want to make sure . Not eveyone. was born a expert at this. Thank you again
