Make sure you have a way to rehome some of them you dont want 15 related babies that makes breeding less fun

you can gently palpate for the presence of eggs

imo you will have to keep an eye on her,she should have a prey lay shed,roughly

basing the following on a jungle carpet python

1.an average of 18.5 days after last witnessed copulation,ovulation should take place

2.peroid between ovulation and pre lay shed is an average of 18.8 dyas

3.period between pre lay shed and egg laying is an average of 24.5 days

so the period between last seen copulation and egg laying averages 74.8 days

period between egg laying and egg hatching,is an average of 53.9 days,but can be anything from 47 to 61 days

i hope it all goes according to plan for you mate

please keep us updated

all the best shaun:)

^^^^^
unless your planning a line breeding project ;)

imo carpets can be line bred to F5's,with no health issues in the hatchlings

Are they housed together?? If she is gravid then you need to separate them of the male will not give her any peace.
