Default Corn snake eggs

Hi
We have two young corn snakes bought 18 mths ago. Today we have found them wrapped around twelve eggs and don't know what to do! We thought one was male but it hasn't eaten for over two weeks and now are wondering could this one be the female? Should we remove the eggs from them? We were not prepared as we were originally told they would not be mature until 2-3 years old and have no incubator or heat pad with thermostat. Help! Can the eggs be left with the snakes tonight? ....until Wednesday?

where are you hon ? someone local may well be able to help.

You may well have some work on your hands getting your snake back up to weight as she is so young, and i would strongly recommend that you seperate the snakes to give her chance to recover and gain weight, she may well still lay again in about 8 weeks though which will really take it out of her.
