I saw Casey's numbers below and thought we could hear some numbers of present and past clutch sizes from hogs. Any one know of egg production records from one female?

One of my 400 gram females had 20 eggs, 6 slugs in clutch 1 and 22 eggs, 0 slugs in clutch 2 and she looks thick and ready for round 3. We'll see how many actually hatch. Last year she had 18 slugs and nothing else.

p.s. this was from a pair of "Het. Pied" bought from Terry Lilley for $1500 pr a few years back. (notice the quotes) Her second clutch she was bred to an albino to at least salvage some actual het for albinos to help pay her off. If nothing else she is a great egg producer and will help with my albino and other projects.
