Thanks for the advice. So far, no luck. I have already called my vet and we are going to get her fixed up first thing tomorrow morning. I didn't realize how much different these eggs are compared to typical colubrid eggs. Hopefully, all will go well.

: Congrats on the eggs Rob!

: I'm not Fred, but here's my unsolicited .02!

: I am a nervous mother hen waiting for mine. You may have noticed the crystalline and porous texture of the eggs.
: I'd give her a day or two. I have had this happen with a Gray Band and was able to palpate the egg to the vent and "push" it out.
: Because of the rough texture I may be hesitant to try this with an Indigo. A small meal may help as well.
: Then it's vet time if nothing happens......quite a bit higher end snake than Gray Bands!

: Fred....what is your advice on this?

: Good luck Rob!

: Peace,
