hi everyone i have a question for you all. i work at a vets office and about a month ago a lady brought a ball python for a check up. i was only able to see if after peeking through the door and it was huge! the vet just said it was overweight and the owners had said it was a male. i honestly thought otherwise. well the next day we get a call from the lady saying it laid eggs. i was like..huh? so they put me to talk to her on the phone and it was never bred. is it common for a female to lay infertile eggs? i know birds do this but i didn't know snakes can as well. she asked me if i knew if it was going to incubate them or abandon them. i told her i can't say for sure because an animal will do what it thinks is best. i told her she can take the eggs, freeze them then toss them out or see if she'll leave them on her own. was that the right thing to say to her? i figured theres not much you can do. just thought it was it was interesting and i've been wondering ever since.
