Pueblan laying eggs

I was excited to see my pueblen had layed a 5 eggs yesterday! When I checked on her this morning it was obvious she still had a few to go.
My question is, about how long does it take for a pueblan to complete laying her eggs? I had a ball python get eggbound a few years ago so I'm a little nervous Thanks.

Re: Pueblan laying eggs

Lampropeltis that lay a healthy clutch usually deposit them all within 48 hours or less.....

Re: Pueblan laying eggs

Thanks! It's only been 24 hours. She's now roaming about the cage which I think might not be good but I'm going to keep a close eye on her tonight. I'll let you know how it goes.

Re: Pueblan laying eggs

Roaming is not good.....to me that means she is looking for a suitable nest area....
Are the eggs she did lay fertile?

Re: Pueblan laying eggs

For some reason that vermiculite looks dry to me. If it is, you do know they look for a moist humid area to lay their eggs right? I hope everything works out.

Re: Pueblan laying eggs

I would moisten her vermiculite are you going to incubate the eggs or let her stay on them I would incubate cuz she wont eat till they hatch and she probably hasnt ate while gravid

This is an old post. Does this person even visit this forum anymore? Doesn't look like it.
