Hello! I hope you all can help me. We have had a King for 10 years as a pet. Well, we recently renamed "King" to "Queenie" as she suddenly laid a couple of eggs. We only have Queenie, so were a bit perplexed as to the egg laying. But that is where our concern begins.

Queenie shed prior to laying the 3 eggs. She hasn't eaten in about 2 months now. Her once shiny scales are dark and dull. She laid another egg about 2 days ago and appears to have another inside her.

I am scared she is dying. I also can't figure out why she keeps laying eggs as they certainly are not fertilized. I am worried about her. Can you advise? Thank you!!!
