She has not passed anything more on her own, so we chose to aspirate again.

This would have been a very traumatic process if I had not been a vet tech for 7 years. I can't imagine how folks without that type of background would feel going through this. I guess a veterinarian visit would do if you could find a true herp vet.

I've seen a lot of posts about egg binding, not just with corns but a few with balls also. My husband and I videoed the second aspiration. I think this would be a great opportunity for some of the seasoned corn breeders to critique what I've done and offer advice to the other members on cornsnake.com in case they ever experience this.

Positive or negative, I'd love to hear what you think of what I've done for this girl. Here's the you tube video link (I don't know how people embed videos right in the post). Please note I kept saying uterus, meant to say oviduct, but my brain was focusing on the female.

Thanks for the well wishes. I'll post an update if she passes anything more.
