That's a bad day Rainer. I thought by the title you meant reabsorbed (or is it resorbed?) them.. Not ATE them. A friend had a Brook's do it last year and a hondo. So far, I have had only a few reabsorb them, but none to my knowledge, ate them. One particular gray band I have has developed eggs, gained lots of girth and then never laid for 2 yrs. previous to this. This year though, she finally did lay 8 good eggs,so I guess I'll keep her.

Sorry to hear of your problems. I am at 25% or less production this year. Maybe we could get together in Daytona and cry in our drinks together.
