Have YOU paired them previously or did you buy them as adults? Did you, with your own eyes, see the '3 clutches'? Have you sexed them yourself? Did you witness the attack? Had you feed them recently and there was a possibility of the smell of rat still present on her (is there any chance it was a feeding response)?
I have had both snakes since hatchlings, and all clutches were mine, they have been paired together before, but her last two clutches have been to someone else. Both myself and the reptile vet sexed her because that was his first thought too.
No recent feeding because of winter cooling.
I put the male in the females enclosure and then went for a shower, while i was in there was a very loud smash, thinking someone was breaking in to my house I jumped out of the shower to investigate, when i entered my reptile room they had smashed the glass and the male was wrapped around the female just like ritual combat between two males, I grabbed the male to pull him out and then he bit the female just behind her head. It took me around 4 mins to get him out of there.
From inspection from the vet she had 4 large cuts down her back, two from being bitten and two from what seems to be from the male smashing her on to the branch I have in there.
Everyone I have spoken to was baffled as to why this has happened.

you should research before you offer an opinion...
Don't know if you're actually asking because you don't know or if you are just trying to gang up on her with the rest but jag x jag produces leucies, some of which can survive for a short time with fatal neuro issues. Some of the more sensitive people consider this cruel because you're knowingly producing animals with a fatal, possible painful, condition for their very short lives.
I'm personally on Jason's side of the fence in that it just means less sibs to try to feed/house/sell but I'm assuming these are the reasons some people would consider it "heartless".
Most clutches I have had from Jag on Jag breeding about %75 of the clutch survives with very few sibs.
I do not like breeding wild types with Jags because I like to keep pure lines pure.
