Picture for Karm, here she is at 3200 grams

This is her about 3 months ago before she swelled up with eggs. Her eggs are all around 3.75'' long which is much larger than I have seen. I cant wait to see heads, and get some accurate weights. The milk jug in the picture shows you just how BIG she is. Enjoy, Brian.

Yep, she's rather large. I've found that just before laying eggs the female may look big; however, once you see the size of the eggs you sware that she should have looked even bigger. Did you happen to get the weight of the clutch?

Actually no, because since I am letting her brood the eggs I haven't got a chance to weigh them. But you're right, I cant believe that much came out of her!! I'm just greatful for a large fertile clutch, man nothing beats the feeling, it gets you hooked!!! I want more!!! lol. Take care, Brian.

P.s. Weird time of year, eh?
