...yes...virgins can lay unfertilized ovum...they do it all the time...

burmese people (and others) say that a snake virgin has laid a clutch of fertile eggs before...(I still dismiss this fact as fiction...I mean fiction as fiction)...

....yes she can lay an egg a day for a week then lay 10 good ones....or 10 duds...or good ones that turn to dead ones...it's all possible...all been done a million times....

so...she needs 85 degrees or so....and 10 days after shed should have been good...but if you had her brumating it will take longer due to the ovum being colder from the start of development inside her....

she may be gravid with good or duds....just keep her warm and watered and have a good nest box...it helps...(cover nest box even ...I have even used newspaper , on top of nest material,,,,and I used moss to lay in ....green ,cutup ,live moss,dampened)...)...
