Well, I figured I would try and feed my #2 female cali today, as she has been off food for a few weeks. When I looked in the tub, my first thought was man did she crap alot. But then I opened my eyes a little wider and there they were.......... 12 eggs spread all over the place, 3 slugs, but everything else looks good. ;) Guess I'll have my coffee now
Cheers ;)

Nice to get a bonus like that Jim!
A wise old herper once told me about breeding snakes "Always expect the unexpected"

Right on Jim. Keep the pics coming. I'll be up to see those in a couple weeks.
Marc: Yes. I was hopeing that i would not have to give her a nest box again. She's been in her water dish for a week and refusing food. She's only done this twice before and it was for the first two clutches this season. She is back up to her optimal weight and she is starting to swell again. I haven't reintroduced the male in months. My jumpins, i hope she don't quadruple!

Jim, congrats on the little black and white wigglers!
Brian, as much as you would of wanted your female pueblan to stop at two clutches, they always have their own agenda! Not unheard that a single female would produce up to 36 hatchlings in one season.
Congrats! Don't forget to post baby pics!! :)

Well just three more to go in the first group, and I expect that two will come out of their eggs shortly (they have already pipped).
On top of that my second clutch has also started to hatch out with one out already and another one pipped.
On top of that I found yet another pile of eggs in my #2 box, 8 out so far and looks like more to come
Man it is gonna get busy around here.......sale on Calis coming soon..;)
Cheers
