Again that sounds like hear say BUT if it were true, then that would mean the females ARE laying eggs with some (maybe not many) being viable. Which (to me) is much better than "you're going to kill your snake if you breed it". Again, this is hear say, so my words are only based on that (don't rush out to breed your females just yet!). It isn't putting up a good fight for reasons not to breed them unless you said that out of those females (however many there were that laid the eggs), most or some of them died or became eggbound, but it would be good information if someone who had the first hand experience would come to back up that story.
