17 eggs!!! They all came out!

Here are the final numbers. Including the two she laid the day she shed(June 10) she laid 26 in total, 17 of which made it to the incubator. It took a lot out of her. She came out of brumation weighing 507g. She went into her first clutch weighing 652g. She weighed 700g when she refused her first meal. After laying her first clutch of 22 eggs, only 10 of which were good she weighed 535g. When she refused food again for the second clutch she weighed 618g. After laying this clutch she only weighs 425g. Putting the weight back on her is going to be a long slow process.
Thanks all for the replies,
Trevor

Hey congrats!

It won't take long! My female laid on the first of May, and since then she has had about 8 meals and is already about the same size as she was going into breeding.

Good luck with those eggs!

If its another Hogg, I'll kill you.

If its a boa morph, I'll have to hurt you.

If its a Jag. Carpet, I'll hate you.

If its a Clown BP I'll just quit the hobby now.

So what is it Chewie? Don't tell me yet. Wait 'til you get it. I don't want to jinx anything.

Well unless air canada finally closes down tonight I should be in business, I got the way bill number tonight.

All I'll say is this, yes boa, yes morph, but which type of boa and what morph, thoes are the real questions. Oh and more hogs will come, it's inevitable just like us doing business for hogs and rainbows these things go deeper then us, lol
Cheers,
Trevor

Are you saying that we're not bigger than the game? Gretzky was. So was Flutie. So why can't we?

Yoda out.

Yoda,

Guys like you are the game. Ron thought he was bigger then Hockey night in Canada, that's different. Hockey was there before him. Guys like you are helping to develop herping in this country, with out you and a small other select group in BC, AB and ON there would be no game. Me, I'm just a squire trying to find a nut!
Cheers bro,
Trevor
