I don't know what you are saying or asking? Are you saying it didn't happen? Are you saying 20" females can't lay eggs? i don't think that is what you are asking.



of course the snake fills out in girth. Eggs are longer but fill out and hatch out normal size babies. The smaller babies and eggs I get come from large mature adults . Never the young small floridana. I get better cluthes from them as a whole. i am talking about statistics here and not just a few snakes. not all large adults have small eggs and small babies. just more of them do and none of the smaller youger snakes have small babies.



I think these snakes do this in the wild. if they feed well right beofre spring it causes the females to ovulate at a much smaller size than we estimated. I noticed this even with rosy boas decades ago. that small rosys, even though live bearing and long gestation, can have just 2-3 babies. i am sure they do this in the wild more often than not as well.
