Hi,
I have had Ball Pythons for a few years now and got three clutches of eggs this year. 2 of my clutches had babies with something sticking out where the yolk sac attaches. I took them to my vet immediately and she said that it was an abdominal hernia, but that she had never heard of that in snakes before.
So my question is has anyone ever had this happen to them? Is it a genetic problem that will happen whenever these females lay eggs?
I am at a complete loss here and would appreciate any input on the matter. Thanks in advance!

Rebecca
