New Mexico pyro laying eggs...

Erik - NM Jun 24, 2007 02:36 PM

A few weeks ago, I posted a couple pictures of a pyro I had caught at the end of May. It looked gravid but a few people said it looked more like a "food item". Well today she is laying. Three eggs so far, another on the way it seems.

Looks like I have some true locality pyros coming my way (hopefully they are all fertile and all hatch). I'll keep everyone updated with photos
