hey everyone. i really appreciate all the replies. very insightful as i did not know about that burm. this had happened about a month and a half ago. when i spoke the owner on the phone she said she had it for years and it has never seen a male. she thought it was a male so thats why she was so shocked. unfortunately i was doing lab work so i wasnt in on the consultation. if not i would have said something. now i wonder if theyll let me call her to see what the results where. she wasnt the easiest owner to speak with so i helped as much as i could but it wasnt what she wanted to hear. ill ask my vet this weekend if we can do a follow up call. that would be interesting if we can find out if ball pythons can lay fertile eggs without a male. parthenogenesis has been proven in komodos..why not another reptile? i will keep you all updated. thanks for your time.
