Can someone help me? Im ussually good with this kind of things, but everything ive tried has failed. I have a female corn snake (which is expected to lay eggs) and she refuses to eat. Ive tried my ussual live ones, thawed ones, and even pinkies. She just doesnt want them. I know that shes suppost to eat a lot before she lays eggs so she has enough strength to lay them. Its been about 1 1/2 weeks and she just shed. She acts like she wants to eat but doesnt seem interested in what I try feeding. Ive even given her a warm bath (which she always enjoys) and changed her bedding. Ive added nothing new to her vivarium. Anyone have any answers?

My appologies Georgina. I did a little researched and discovered that she probably is looking for a laying box. I have put on in today, and she seems satisfied now. Only a matter of time before I have my very first batch of eggs!!!!

Try offering her a warm thawed chick.

Sorry, its just that you sad expecting to lay eggs.

Oh, its not time for that yet. Shes expecting to lay sometime in June I think. She shows no lumps in her lower end and it doesnt feel like she has eggs

its difficult to advise as we tend to scent our prey to try and get them to feed. if she has had her prelay shed then i reckon shes waiting to lay eggs and is out and about looking for a lay box? x
