50 egg clutch

[cement]

Its a big one from the big girl.
She is an absolutely gorgeous 9ft yellow diamond, who is the most placid and lovely snake in my collection. Bred 7 years ago and my favourite large python.

Not quite, Fay. From memory, Tremain Anderson (or a friend of his) got 54 out of a big Bredli.

Cheers everyone. I got home from a New Years camping weekend to find them. They were a few days early and i thought I'd be back in time but she laid while i was away.
It is her first clutch too!

For those interested, she actually started shivering thermo-genesis a few days before laying. In an attempt to keep her temps up to the eggs. It is the first time I have seen a python do this, and i got to record some interesting data.
I guess i better start another rack!
cheers

Wow! She's gorgeous! 50 eggs, I hope all of them hatch and you end up with 50 babies just like their Mum!!!

 

[pythonmum]

Holy Moley! That is an amaing clutch from your beautiful girl. Are you sure that just one extra rack will do the trick?! I hope all goes well with the incubation and that she starts eating right away. She has a lot to make up for!

 

[garthy]
