Below are two clutches of Western Hognose snake eggs from the same female. The clutch on the left
was laid just over a month ago, and then last night I got clutch 2 on the right. A couple are duds(far right)
and a few from the first clutch have already been tossed,but still, that's a lot of eggs to pump out in just over a month. Last year
this female ovulated in hibernation due to the warm winter
and it screwed things up completely. She was dumping slugs all summer with not a single good egg.
All goes to show, a good cool winter can make for excellent breeding.
