I was "lucky" enough to have a female retain 3 eggs a couple years back. The snake in question was an over weight female hondo. I aspriated two of the eggs in the lower body with ease and she passed them within 12 hours. I was a little aprehensive about the egg that was high up in the body and felt i would let her pass it on her own or maybe absorb it. She eventually was put down by the owner, she was a breeding loan.
