Do BPs need to breed?

[LadyByrd]

I have a male normal that's almost 6 years old and will never be breed. It doesn't affect his temperament at all, he's the sweetest, most calm snake I have and I use him for educational purposes instead of for breeding. Snake aren't like cats or dogs or mammals I should say. Even though instinctually it's all about surviving and multiplying it's not something that will make them act differently or crazy during breeding season or anything. The only affect breeding season has on snake is feeding. Some will fast/stop eating during this time.

So, on this same topic, will females develop eggs regardless of being bred or not???? I mean, I know that chickens, ducks, and other egg laying animals will lay non-fertilized eggs, so I am just curious about un-bred female bps. I doubt that they will lay without being bred, but will they still ovulate?
