WHOPPERS!

Decided to introduce my 2010 (anery) female to my ghost male. She had good size, appeared to be ovulating, ane they mated right away. She just laid 5 whopper eggs. They are all about 3 1/2" long. Should be some nice big babies.

Giant Eggs for sure!

Do you have a pic of the male Ghost?

Good stuff,

Yeah. If all goes well,they should have a 3 or 4 month head start in size.

Wow those look huge! Should be some awesome babies.

Do you separate the eggs or were none stuck together?

These were not stuck together. But they do look to be good.

Disclaimer: I do keep several snakes in pairs, and some in groups. However I realize that things can go wrong, and I have to keep a close eye on those groups, to be sure they are not being adversely affected by these living conditions. Also if one happens to eat it's cagemate, it is 100% my fault, and I know the risks in advance!

What's wrong with using CAUTION?!?!?!

That is awesome! I bet those eggs will look really fat by the time they hatch.

Those remind me of these "hotdog" eggs I had a couple years ago. The longest was an insane 4 inches long!.
