Thanks Phil... this female surprised me w/ her clutch size actually. As for differences between the locales... pretty interesting. Though I've never bred any Sandhills animals. I can say that south FL animals tend to be agressive feeders on parts as well right from the start. Matter of fact I have a cb pair from '05 that are both pushing 18" and easily could've bred. Once started they were some of my most aggressive feeders. Though by no means did they come close to matching their mother within a year -- that's damn impressive.
