So I don't know how to post a picture cuz I am retarded. But I need you help. My son has a columbian rainbow boa that appears to have laid some sort of weird yolk looking things. If you text me I can send you the pics-701-371-3327. Thanks!
 
large yellowish/orange blob things? look kind of like this?

If so, those are slugs, meaning unfertalized ovum. (Your son's snake is female and if she had been bred by a male, those would have been babies.) It's not uncommon for rainbow boas to eat them after birth, so if she does, don't freak out.
 
Yep that what it looks like. But she has never been with a male and she is about 5 or so. She has never done this before. So will she eat them? There is only like 3.
 
yes some females will ovulate without ever being with a male. She might or might not eat them, you can remove them too, it won't hurt her either way. This may continue to happen each year!
 
Ok thanks for the info. We have never bred snakes so couldn't figure out what it was. Thanks for the info.
