Rainer, it's easy to see who always starts the "missions" here. All I ever do is follow up on it from your snide comments. All I asked was if Jeremy's female was only 8 to 9 months old when she became gravid, and that was IT!. And of course you put on your big hairy "gorilla suit" like you always do here in an attempt to "show me" how very little I know (again, like you always feel the need to do).

Didn't you say something recently about getting a few eggs from a 15 inch female a while ago?

Now, doing some simple math, at the rate of VERY HEAVY feedings that you always tout to everyone, this would mean that if the snake was hatched out at say 10 or 12 inches long (typical size), it only grew a mere 3 to 5 inches more in an entire season and was sexually mature after only growing 3 to 5 inches in that first year? Are you following so far?

How can a normal healthy Florida king hatchling only grow 3 to 5 measly inches from the egg and be sexually mature and have good eggs???

Is it just a miracle of some sort, or what?
