Wow, that's a 15mm difference. Not sure how old this girl is, but I figured her for being 3-5 yrs.
The previous female I had, was about the same size as yours, and gave birth to 12 babies. She came from high elevation in Taos. This current one came from NM also, but much lower elevation. Wonder if it's regional genetics, elevation, or another factor. There seems to be greater variation in SVL among mature hernandesi than most other species, and greater disparity between sizes of mature males and females.
>>SVL is 7.4 cm. She's been this size for the last year. She's 3 yrs. old.
