Bloodred with strange bumps!

My 4 year old bloodred female layed 9 fertile eggs two days ago, and now she has TWO small bumps in her stomach. They are hard and about 1,5 cm!

The first is placed where the gall bladder is and the other bump about 10 cm below.
Please help me, I have never heard of it before! :shrugs:
 
But they don´t fell like eggs, they are very small and hard, abrupt. How can I help her? or should I just leave her alone?
 
Well, I have a snake which wasn't bred this year who became eggbound. She had a couple of eggs in her. One was stuck near the vent. I took her with me to work (I work for a vet) and managed to get the egg near the vent out. After that I could feel a bunch of small hard objects between her vent and the other "stuck" egg. What I am feeling is extremely hard stool. Because the egg was blocking her vent, the snake is now extremely constipated. I am hoping that she will be able to pass the stool now that the egg is out of the way. Hopefully she can pass that other egg, also!

I would think that a snake that lays her eggs normally could have the same thing happen. You should try feeding her to see if it will stimulate her to poop.

Ohh okey, I was thinking of that. So I tried to feed her, but she wasen´t interested yet, I will try in a few days again.

Thanks!
