Here is a question that I am curious about. Both you and BR, use egg production, and by that I mean viable hatching eggs od course, as a guide to whether a snake is in it's upper range, as you put it. My question is...has anyone taken any real data comparing, the one or two clutches we normally get, to what you guys claim to be pumping out? I mean, are you, and Br producing more in the long run, or is it just smaller clutches, all year round, when compared to larger production by others who do the winter cool down. I know I'm probably gonna regret even asking this, but please one of you give us some real data.

Disclaimer: I do keep several snakes in pairs, and some in groups. However I realize that things can go wrong, and I have to keep a close eye on those groups, to be sure they are not being adversely affected by these living conditions. Also if one happens to eat it's cagemate, it is 100% my fault, and I know the risks in advance!

What's wrong with using CAUTION?!?!?!
