Late season breeding

So this year, with everything going on, our male and female didn't get put together at their usual time (March). However, they started acting like they wanted to be together in May and we decided to give it a try. They seemed interested in each other (we've never seen them breed but they have produced viable eggs in the past). We just separated them and Jack didn't eat afterwards (typical for him during the breeding season) and Jill only ate one mouse (also typical for her around the breeding season). I'm wondering, is it possible she could produce viable eggs despite the late timing? They are acting like they normally do around the breeding season, and I know Corn Snakes can breed more than once a year (so must be able to breed later in the season).
 
So apparently it worked! Jill laid 30 eggs today! Poor thing is exhausted and has lost so much weight. Hopefully a few good meals and some rest will get her back to her healthy self.
 
Thanks! It's her biggest clutch so far. I think she had 26 last year.

I'm a little worried because it looks like she could have one more in her, but she was willing to eat so I thought I would give her a little more time.
