Just thought I'd pop these up, since a lot of egg slug pictures are not normally as bright orange/yellow and seem more off white compared to these, might be helpful to someone at some point.



I put in a lay box for her, but I guess she really loves her snake cave filled with aspen. Were 5 but I chucked one before taking the picture. They are really small yet so very hard.



A very special super, duper thanks for K :3

I never realised that the infertile ones might be harder to pass. Poor snakey, I hope there aren't any more :(

Awww Stapey. I really feel for you right now. I really hope that she is done and that there are no more hidden away. I found that when I had connie out, I could feel the eggs by holding her up slightly as she slid back into her viv while gently pressing one finger along her belly. How many has she laid before?

I can't feel any but I'm not sure if its because the eggs are small, but she has eaten which is good. She had 11 or 13 slugs last year, which was a smaller number than the 15 the year before that, just hoping the umbers are getting smaller each year till she has none.

i was just wondering why are they called slugs? and do all females have this "problem" (couldnt think of a better word!!) or lay infertile eggs is a better way of putting it?!!

Spoke too soon, theres about 5 more, one the size of a pea, I'm not kidding! Will have to take a piccy at some point. Shes gone into shed, she has another egg right at her vent though!

Don't think all females do it Cazzy.

Shes had a bath and I will leave her be, if not laid by tomorrow it will be the vets for her friday/saturday :( it's less than a cm away from her vent, when I touch her she makes a noise like shes in pain :( hopefully she will pass it but the fact she is in shed seems to suggets she thinks shes laid all her eggs.
