Maddur: The social media users went crazy on Sunday, May 5 after a 1.21-minute video clip of a cobra laying eggs on a busy street went viral.

In the video clip the pregnant snake lays 14 eggs in less than an hour in the middle of the street. The eggs can clearly be seen moving down the body of the snake and out of the vent, which serves as the only opening for snakes to release bodily excretions.

Reportedly, this incident dates back to March this year when a teacher who had found the venomous snake inside his home took it outside and called a local snake expert for help. However, before the snake expert, could rescue the reptile, it made its way into the street in front of the home and started laying eggs.

Later snake expert caught the snake and released it in a nearby forest and took the eggs with him saying he would release the snakelings after they hatch.

As per the sources, female cobras can lay anywhere from 20 to 40 eggs so it is most likely that the mother snake had not finished laying her hatch when she was moved.
