Posted this image on another board, but thought I would share it here as well! Great image of a female laying her SECOND clutch of the season!

Very nice, i do love coxi, one of the best looking colubrids imo. How many eggs did you get in her first clutch compared to this clutch?

[MMost]

First clutch was 2 good eggs and 3 bad eggs. Have received bad eggs from these females their first time breeding except for this morning when a female laid 7 good eggs. AMAZED! I posted pictures below! Have not changed anything with husbandry, Pro-Exotics has mentioned that these females will lay infertiles with their first clutch.......... Not sure what to take, as we really are trying to imitate their natural conditions.

I do not mind putting up more information about husbandry if you wish?

Very nice! That's interesting that the first clutch had a number of infertiles.

I only had one infertile egg from one breeding female her first time, and none from the other, but with anything the first clutch is generally the worst. 7 eggs is a nice sized clutch though, highest from mine was 6, and they averaged at around 5 eggs each.

Looks like your female has got things right with body condition and knows what she is doing now though with 7 good eggs, good to see more people breeding them, they are such stunning snakes. Good luck with the eggs.
