That is very interesting.

Back in the mid 90s I had a California King lay a clutch of eggs while I was at the store down the street....When I came back home she was in the process of swallowing the last one.....I thought to myself that they were all duds...I could feel 4 in her stomach. I never paired her back up with a male that year......
Later that summer she laid 9 perfect eggs and they all hatched....
I thought to myself that she knew she needed nourishment and was willing to sacrifice her first clutch to feed her second one.....
