My ball python has been restless (not staying in the hide box, roaming and hanging about the guard for the ceramic heater that I use for ambient temp) since laying 6 eggs a couple of weeks ago.

I did the whole cleaning and bathing thing twice to remove any egg scent.

I kept the front of the vivarium covered up and she settled a bit more.

Then she took a 200g rat last Saturday after 7 or 8 months without, and she hasn't come out of the hidebox except to drink since then.

I'm not sure what that was all about, I'm just hoping she eats again in a few days time.
