Honduran with 16 egg clutch.

RandyWhittington Jul 12, 2005 06:05 PM

I've had clutches in the 10 to 13 size range from hondurans over the years but was amazed to see 16 from this het for hypo. She's a very large honduran but still!
I was wondering what were some of the largest honduran clutches some of you have had?
It's hard to tell by the picture but there are 16.

Nice size clutch! and they say six on average...

A Europeen hondurensis breeder got 19 eggs in a single clutch a few years ago.

hi randy, congratulations! 15's my biggest, but only 12 or 13 GOOD eggs is the best any of my females have done. Super results you got.

Thanks. I bred her to a het for hypo this year as my hypo males were already stretched out a little thin with other females. If I knew how many eggs she was going to lay I would have used a hypo male. Randy
