I was wondering same thing. I have a female ball who laid 9 eggs June 5th, resumed eating, and now is big time bowl wrapping and acting funny. She has not been bred again since laying her eggs. I had a corn this year lay a 2nd clutch a couple months after her first clutch and I hadn't bred her either after she laid the first clutch.

Snakes can store sperm, so it's possible she just impregnated herself.
