How long 'til she lays?

Raaaawr!
My friend just asked me how long it takes for a corn snake to lay after conception... And I couldn't answer!
I think my brain my have just melted slightly...
I tried searching but the link isn't working for some reason and google is about as helpful as an ashtray on a motorbike...

Any help? I can find plenty info on how long it takes for laid eggs to hatch roughly but there is a shortage or anything else ¬_¬



Thanks, Jenn.
 
They usually lay eggs about six weeks after a fertile breeding. About 10 days prior to egglaying, there's a pre-egglaying shed. After the shed is a good ti,e to put a nestbox in the snake's cage.

Ah thanks, I could remember the pre-laying shed part but not how long it took altogether. I put the laying box in with my female about 3 weeks after I saw her mating last year, just to make sure lol.
Also, that's a fantastic photo!
