According to the research done by the Barkers in the early and mid 90s Ball pythons do not exhibit any twitching of muscles to produce heat like other larger python species. Also, I have never witnessed this myself. But I agree that it is better to remove the eggs because she will begin to eat a lot sooner and will not be wasting any energy incubating the eggs. Besides it is a lot easier to maintain exact conditions in an incubator.
