She double clutched on me!!!!

My female Snow (Yuki-Onna) laid 17 eggs at the beggining of April, they started to hatch on May 28, and I am still waiting for the last 2 to come out of thier eggs.

I took all the babies who are out of egg to a local breeder friend of mine to help me sex them and she started spouting about some females double clutching and did mine do that. I said "god, I hope not, she's thin enough as it is after laying the first 17, and I am trying desperately to fatten her up so I don't see her spine anymore" My breeder friend said, "well if she does double clutch, she'll do it soon"

I came home and could smell someone in the rack had pooped, so I started checking tubs and to my dismay Yuki was sitting there with 14 more eggs!! I haven't candled yet, but it looks like only 5-7 are viable, but I will candle in the next day or two to check it out.

Please tell me they don't triple clutch, I seriously want to feed her up so she doesn't look so darned thin anymore!!

My poor little girl
