Aside from the parthenogenesis, I don't know much about their reproductive behavior. From what I've read though, they are oviparous. Seems that being the only species of snake, that I can think of, that reproduces asexually that they would be studied a bit more closely. I guess keeping them in captivity isn't exactly easy.

Like these snakes, Indo Pacific Geckos, extremely common in FL, are all female. The females will even court each other like a male would. This seems to stimulate egg devlopment.

Just felt I would post this
