Thanks for all the info, really appreciate it... also Sarah, just wanted to ask, you said try and get a male to prevent egg laying, but my question is, do they just randomly lay eegs even without the presence of a male with them?
Just a quick update, I found a female for him!!! It's going to be quite a while before they breed (she's just a baby), but this is just a pet project for me. I only have room for a couple snakes so she and my pied are it for now.
She's just a baby, but here's the breeder's picture.

yes they do, back when i had my veiled i thought that it was a boy because she was a re-home from someone and thats what they told me, but anyways so she was totally healthy and one day i see tons of eggs in the tank, she laid for like 2 days and then got really sick, this was before i knew about egg binding so i wasnt sure what to do and there were no reptile vets near me, she was sick for almost a week before she finally passed and it wasnt until after she died that i was looking up illnesses and found that egg binding seemed to fit the bill of how she got sick, she just suddenly got lethargic and her tongue turned yellow and wasnt sticky anymore so i had to hold the crickets up to her mouth in order for her to eat them and the last day or so she turned really dark, lets just say if i ever get another cham again (which i would LOVE to do as she was awesome) its definitely going to be a male,
and OP that little girl is amazing!!!! they are going to make some beautiful babies when they are older that is for sure, your collection may be small but it is IMPRESSIVE!!!
