Hi,
This is my female and as you can see she has 2 lumps in her tummy...she laid 22 eggs last Monday and since then she has eaten 2 large fluffs and she is just about to come up for a shed...i don't think these are eggs as they are a bit high in her body to be but just wanted a second opinion...im assuming that if she is egg bound she wouldnt be eating and coming up for a shed?
Any help will be much apreciated and thanks in advance :D

| Also forgot to say i think the lumps might be the digested fluffs as she was fed Wednesday and i dont think she had the lumps previous to this as i only noticed these today |

About the same really, i didnt notice them beforr feeding her i only noticed them yesterday which was the next time i looked at her after feeding. As i said before she is in a shed cycle at the mo and has not popped yet.
Im assuming that if she was egg bound she would not be shedding or feeding? |

I be surprised if she could become egg bound at this stage. Might be worth giving her a warm bath an making sure she goes into the warm hide to help digestion. How high up are the lumps

| She only laid the eggs Monday last week i bred her late this year, but shes laid, ate and in shed so i doubt it because shes egg bound. The lumps are about midway down her body miles away from her vent which is why i think its food and not eggs but i can just see it more as she lost a bit of weight maybe? |

Right i have spoken to a reptile vet and he didn't seem to think this was to much to worry about (as in rushing her down to the vets straight away) he advised that it might be something to do with her digestive system and that it will be going through a lot at the moment being her loosing weight and trying to put it back on and something about her loosing a lot of fat at once (he used ore better words than this but i think that's the jist of it lol) he said to bath her which i have done and if the lumps have not moved by the end of the week to bring her in for an x-ray. It seemed like she wanted to go 'to the ladies room' in the bath but didn't, i massaged her vent so hopefully that will work soon.
On doing all of the above she was very active and alert to the point where she found an escape route out of the bath and then tested my patience (bless her)she still in blue but seemed very happy so im hoping that's good.
Think i am just going to keep a close eye on her and see how she goes, if in still concerned by thursday im going to book her in to see lovely 'mr vet' on Saturday :D she going to love me!! lol |

| Hi everyone just an update, so 2 weeks following these lumps that i have found i have been keeping an eye on her, the 'lumps' have moved from her 25th and 26th sadle down to her 28th and 29th sadle (good news!!) however i went to the reptile shop and spoke to the guy who owns it who is very experienced with breeding and the problems that may happen from this and he advised that these eggs/lumps needs to be moved out of her and gave me some advice as to do this...i got her home and my friends got her out and noticed that she is a bit lumpy all the way down her bottom half...spoke to the guy at the shop again and me, my friends and him agreed that this could be her secound batch of eggs (as she laid a secound clutch last year) as she has been eating and pooping fine and has also put a lot of weight on very quickly...things may be looking up but will be keeping a close eye on her. |

| I would still be worried that the lumps are still there, even if they have moved a tad...Infile eggs can harden, very hard as in feel as hard as stone! Egg bound snakes can also eat. |
  
A very special super, duper thanks for K :3 |

| They arent hard at all to touch, the reptile vet i spoke to said that if they were moving that they would be ok, should i take her back as she is fine in herself and touching the lumos gives her no pain and she did double clutch last year? |

Hey guys just wanted to update everyone, i woke up to an egg this morning its a bit yellower than the others that she laid originally and i candeled it and there is no veins in it so think that one is out of the question for hatching. Bit of a releif for me as i though she was egg bound!!
Shal i incubate the egg and just see what happens or freeze it? |
