Hi,
My banded water snake has been living in her new home for a couple of months now, and today her owner contacted me, because she, I mean the snake, made five of these. WHAT!?Can unfertilized eggs be coloured like this?

Those look like "jellybeans," AKA unfertilized eggs. I'm sure the colors are different for different species/genuses.

yep, those are jellybeans... unfertilized babies! Don't worry about her, as long as she is able to pass them, she is fine.
