How big is your biggest corn?

Clydesdale Apr 10, 2007 04:58 PM

By weight...

My guy is not even 2 years old and he's topping 500 grams. I know that's big for his age, but is it big for corns in general?

How big are yours?

Well, off the top of my head, I'd say this is currently my biggest corn.
2000 Anery Mot het Hypo female 'posing' with a quarter. (photo taken in December 2006)
65" from her nose to the tip of her tail.

She's double-clutched every year since 2002 and has layed approximately 170 eggs total. (Only slugs were 3 in 2002 when she was bred to a Stripe. Stripe males are known for low fertility, so I don't hold the 3 slugs against HER good name. lol)

When I weighed 'Spot' on Saturday she was a plump and very gravid 890 grams.
Within a couple weeks I'll have 20plus eggs from her...
Than 15plus a few weeks after the first clutch...
Every year she's bred I've gotten a minimum '20 & 15' from her.
(In both 2005 and 2006 she double-clutched with 24 and 18 eggs.)

five foot and 1365 grams. He is a normal I got from a pet store before I started keeping corns to take care of my rat overflow.
