I hadn't heard of any captive clutches until this year. I know several were collected and sent to Texas A & M for bloodwork analysis. I thought a couple breeders tried the last couple years and didn't get anything. One female dropped a late clutch last year while the person was out of town and that was the first I heard of captive eggs. The eggs didn't make it, but they may not have been fertile to start. I wonder if the captive bred Tx corns will be as ornery as the wild caught adults. LOL

or these little buggers would be already striking at me through their egg shells. Their mom is a real b!tch!

The father is a big bruiser and of much better temperament (better for a TX Corn that is).

boy your right about their loving attitudes, mine are all sweet hearts, pfft. Yours only laid 11 eggs? Mine laid 19 and 21. Are yours from Carlos, 244? Cause I would like a male off that street

Yours only laid 11 eggs? Mine laid 19 and 21.

My female was wild caught early this spring and isn't really a big girl yet. She is only about 3 feet, at the most and still fairly slender. When I put here in with the huge male I had, he dwarfed her (but he got the job done!).

In fact, she didn't eat anything for the whole time I have had her until after shed layed her clutch.

Are yours from Carlos, 244? Cause I would like a male off that street

My male was from 244 but I finally let him go a few weeks ago because he was just too big and cantankerous. If I thought I could have found him a home, I probably would have!

The female is actually a county record snake from Robertson county (east of Calvert). I need to get a DOR from up there so that the "county record sword of Damacles" isn't constantly suspended above her head. I have seen a couple of DORs up there but that was before I knew they were county records!

I also have a yearling female from CR 190 (the road that Rob told me about) that I picked up for someone.

Doh! wish I would have gotten a hold of you before you let him go. I no longer live in the area so I dont have much time to hunt there.
