    Question ball female just laid eggs

    Ok i just checked on a little female i bought in november 16th to be exact.She is around 1100 grams and has never been with a male since i have had her.Well i just found her wrapped around 3 good looking eggs and 3 odd shaped eggs that were bad.The 3 good looking eggs are in a incubator since i discovered them.Now i am still rather new on the ball python breeding as last year was my first.I have talked to two people allready and one says she could have been gravid since i got her(retained sperm from last year).The other says they are unfertile eggs for sure.I tried looking thru them with a light but was unable to get a good look for veins.I would like some feedback from the members here on thier thoughts.Thanks ahead of time

    Give them a few days...if the veins are present, they will be alot easier to see then. What is this females origin? Was she 1100 after the eggs or before?6 eggs for a 1100 gram girl is alot...good or bad....get that girl cleaned up and freshen up her enclosure, so she can get back to eating

    When i recieved her in november she weighed 1100 grams.She has refused to eat ever since i have had her.She is supposed to be a captive bred and born.I will update if anything comes of the eggs.

    Re: ball female just laid eggs

    Update, i lost one egg last night as it collasped.I opened it and did find a embreoinside but dead.Two eggs left and they have a small dimple in each.The humidity and temp are set perfect.The shells have a small area that looks thin so maybe i will lose them also .I will keep my fingers crossed though
