30 year old ball python laid eggs today!!!
Help! Precious laid eggs today and has never EVER been around a male. They are white and have probably been in there with her for at most a day. I put a light up to them and saw veins. Someone please tell me what's going on.

Parthenogenesis! A rare thing that will happen if a female is not able to breed in her lifetime, she can literally 'clone' herself and produce eggs. A lot of the time they don't develop very well and die in the late incubation stages

Re: 30 year old ball python laid eggs today!!!
So what should I do,it seems like she still has a couple left to lay,she laid 7 already and I have them in an incubator (the best I could make) she's really old and once I did research I realized the last couple months were all signs,she looked huge and she shed awhile before she laid and I really want to do my best to see if I can hatch them.

At this point, if you've got the incubator at good temps (right around 88-90) and good humidity, it is just a waiting game for them to hatch Nothing else special you need to do

Well I guess you have your replacement ball python when she nears her end of life LOL. Congrats! We are all trying so hard to get eggs and here you go and just get them as easy as falling over a log HA!

I've always wondered if the resulting snakes have the same behaviors(personalities?) as the mother since they're clones.

That's soooo cool. I'll be watching this too. I recently posted a link to studies done on parthenogenesis, I'll put it here if anyone is interested too.
