My first clutch of ball python’s eggs is due to hatch this Saturday. I am very excited, as you could imagine. I keep my ball pythons females in CB70 tubs with disposable cage liners as substrate. The female in question normally lays under the liner. Should I put anything in the cage for her to nest in, or is it alright for her to lay right on the bottom of the tub? Also, do they mostly lay in the middle of the night? Is it alright to leave them in there until the morning, or should I be checking on her often so that I can remove the eggs right after she lays them?
Sorry for so many question. I just want to make sure that I do everything correctly. Thanks to all that answer.
