Looking good Jeff... I've seen this phenomenon of long eggs in many young snakes and I've had young Hondos have those torpedo eggs as well...It's like Mary said...Young females tend to lay longer but fewer eggs. Pyros and Sinaloans often have huge long eggs as well
With Hondos, you rarely see small babies, so I guess small females simply lay fewer bigger eggs, but you should find pretty large yolk filled babies come out of those eggs... 12-14 inchers or so.
They'll be ready for hoppers right off the bat.
