    Amber colored jellybean

    Ok guys, I found an amber colored semi-clear jellybean in Prettyboy's cage just now when I was cleaning cages. It was on top of everything, not dirty, so I have to think it just happened. She is the eastern that hasn't eaten in the last two months. My usb hub is out so I can't upload photos right now without a lot of monkey business. Any ideas on what it is or what would cause it?

    Re: Amber colexactly like an undeveloped babyored jellybean

    Tori, this sounds exactly like an undeveloped baby. I've no idea what causes it, only that it happens on occasion.

    So this won't hurt her, right? She is about 8 years old and has never been with a male snake.

    Re: Amber colored jellybean

    I've got no personal experience with this
    I do seem to remember that somebody's snake had a problems with jellybeans that hadn't passed
    perhaps you should feel whether there might be more she's carrying, and if so, give her warm baths

    aren't jellybeans always unfertilized?
