Ovy? Check. POS? Check. Eggs? NOPE! Should I be worried?
So our normal x mojo breeding seems to have taken. Our female ovulated on April 2nd. She did have her post ovulation shed, unfortunately, it wasn't stamped down which day it was. I am certain it's been much longer than 30 days, though. She's done the laying upside down, backwards, sideways, etc. She's done the tub cruising, digging through the substrate, in and out of the laybox. Her tub looks like bomb went off.
But NO EGGS yet! I've picked her up, I can see them inside of her, very clearly. No photos, though, as I didn't want to mess with her too much. I can feel them, very clearly as well. Her back is very peaked/ridged. Her tail is scrunched.
But I'm worried. Today is day 83 post-ovy. and no eggs. Nothing seems to be moving.
SHOULD I be worried? I'm fairly confident she's not egg bound. I had a corn egg-bound with a whole pile of slug soup last year, and I know what that looked like, and it was not pretty. But this snake is exhibiting all the normal signs, but she just hasn't laid yet.
83 days is an EXTREMELY long time, is it not?
Have any of you had a snake go "overdue" like this? Is this just murphy messing with me, yet again, this season?
AHHHH!
Anyways, here's some photos of her. The ovy-






Poor lady laying all funny-
