Last year I produced ghost cal kings for the first time by breeding a 2010 light phase Ghost male to a 2010 het ghost female that I had raised up from hatchlings. Got 9 eggs, 8 hatched. This year I never witnessed them breeding like I did all my other snakes, but she swelled up so I gave her a nesting box. For weeks she just buried into the nesting box and dumped the dirt out of it, I didn't know when they bred so I really didn't know when to expect eggs.
Lifted up her hidebox the other day to check on her and she was wrapped around 10 eggs. All look good.
Here is the female, pic was taken last year, she has such good body weight after she laid eggs she was still nowhere near skinny!
