ok i have a male and a female ball python they are housed together and have been for two years. they sometimes sleep together under the logs or will sleep seperatly under their own. well recently i have noticed she burried herself under the water dish on the cooler. and has not come out but maybe twice in 3 weeks. could she have layed eggs im afraaid to move the water dish and have her strike if she did... the only other thing i can think of is wait til the next time she comes out to check.. but it has not happened very much lately.
