Feed the female a lot! Food supply is what triggers the females to produce more eggs. It's not rocket science! Nature has built in checks and balances, so if an area is overun with rodents, it triggers the snakes to produce more to achieve a balance! I would definately try to get them to copulate again, but even if they don't there is a chance she may still lay good eggs. I however have not had it happen without the additional Mating. Laying eggs takes a lot out of the females, so make sure you continue to feed her well after she lays regardless of trying for more eggs or not. Good luck, and have fun.
