Double clutching

snakeman97 May 10, 2009 10:16 PM

I have a 3 year old Honduran that just laid 5 eggs. Will it hurt her if I double clutch her? If it's ok when would I breed her again. Thanks

It all depends on her weight after the first eggs. I've done it with a 4yr.old before, as long as I don't have to power feed her for doubles. I wouldn't try it if she looks shallow in mo. It also depends on your male. Most snakes lay their 2nd around the time the first clutch is hatching out.
