Hi everyone
I'm new here. I will introduce myself in my second post but first a quick question. My female lays a clutch every year and then SHE EATS THEM. How can I stop this? Thanks

Remove and incubate the eggs its healthier for her and by the sounds of it safer for the eggs too

I don't really know much about breeding snakes but this sounds like good advice to me.

Oh brother. I'm not troll. Thanks for all the kindness.
And if you think I'm just trolling this board or something you don't need to worry. I promise I won't be back.

As said remove them and incubate them yourself. We love to see pictures of your snake.
