Most gravid snakes will not eat when they're so close to laying, but some do. Most people I know do not offer food at this time. I think many keepers wait until several hours after they drop their clutch and then offer food. If they do not want it that day they usually eat 24-48 hours after. I hope you have a nest box in with her because she is going to drop those eggs soon, maybe even less than a week. If you have the water bowl in the cage you should also remove it, or she may lay her eggs in it. Tom Stevens
