Hi
My female snake has successfully laid 1 clutch of 19 eggs. They have now mostly hatched, but I can now feel more eggs inside her and think she is gravid again.
My male and female snakes are always in the same vivarium since I got the female about 6 months ago.
My worry is, will she lay more than 2 clutches??
I have heard that it is dangerous for the female to lay 3+ clutches, and could lead to serious health problem, and maybe death.
Is it true that they can lay more than 2 clutches, or not??
If it is, what shall I do??
Thanks. |

TBH 2 is most likely given the timescale and how far on we are in the year
BUT it you don't want eggs then the obvious answer would be to split them up!! |

| multiple clutches do take alot out of females,so you need to make sure she's well fed or as gingerpony said,split them. |

Thanks,
I have made an agreement with the local reptile shop to swap 9 babies for 2 3ft second hand vivs, so I can split them. At least then I will have 1 spare to buy another reptile!! |
