2nd Clutch, Even Better!!!

John Q May 08, 2004 11:00 AM

I posted pics of a 7 egg clutch earlier this week. That clutch was from one of my female New Mexico Milks. 3 of those eggs were questionable and after a few days incubating, they are slugs. I always keep the eggs for a few days or until they are definitely not good. Still not a bad clutch considering the species. L.T. Celaenops don't usually produce real big clutches. I say usually because female 2 put down her clutch the next day. 7 eggs and they all look fertile.
Both females have been fed hoppers and put back in with the male. Yes, these girls double clutch and I'm hoping they do this year just like they have in the past.
