    weights: before, during, and after laying.

    Hi, just curious if anybody has any records on there ball pythons weights before breeding, while holding eggs, and after laying? I heard they can lose half the weight after laying..

    I can start by saying I have a female that was about 1400-1500 grams before I started pairing, 2000 grams now after ovulation, but not sure about the after laying weigh-in yet..
