    Re: Help! Eggs out of no where!

    You already stated you didn't have the money to set a second cage up. Then you go on to say you could put together a incubator and a rack for the multiple possible babies.

    I know you mentioned the $450 cage you wanted but it cost much less to get a tub and set it up properly(see our sticky post on setting up a tub enclosure) to get the snakes housed separately.

    When you "thought" the female was gravid, you didn't plan on what to do. Waiting until there is an issue makes everything an emergency.

    I have had the money to make up a second cage before and do now, my goal was to buy 2 matching stackable PVC cages so that I would not have to upgrade or replace them again, which is where the $450 price came from and I was not financially secure enough to spend that + what extras I would need to setup both at the same time and feel I had enough "fall back" funds left over. I personally do not like racks, but understand that they are a good option, and could throw one together from my herp stuff in an hour or 2 if I really needed to.
    As for the female being gravid, I was told they were males, and by the time I noticed that she had a bulge she was already pregnant because she laid the eggs within a week or 2.

    Above your post was my response to the thread anyways, I am looking for someone to take the eggs if they want them for free, if not will freeze them, and the male is being rehomed for now.

    If I could edit the original post I would add my response to the bottom of the 1st one so people could see it.
