Male Lays Eggs

Koda, my 5 yr old male laid a clutch of eggs today!!! Considering “she” has not been around another snake in 3 yrs, I can confidently say they are infertile. Seeing as I was told she was a he, I never considered this possibility. I have no idea what to do. I hate the idea of taking away her eggs. Will she abandon them? How long should I leave them with her?

I had been concerned that she wasn’t eating, but I guess this explains her appetite. She shed a week ago, but wouldn’t eat after, which was abnormal for her. She’s looking thin. When can I expect her to act hungry? She also is changing color again like she’s going to shed again just a week after doing so. Is that normal?

All advice welcome.
