She laid another clutch on of 19 Feb. 3, then she laid 27 more eggs on Feb. 25th.
That's a total of 92 eggs since the first clutch in Oct.
Oy.. I know I said I didn't want to break eggs and my vet still has clutch #2 in her incubator but WOW!
I hated to do it but I had to dispose of the eggs because I can't be responsible for that many lives IF those eggs were even fertile. Plus we didn't have her bred on purpose, never wanted it to happen so ....

I didn't want to break them so I didn't. I dug them up & set them on my backlot so that some poor hungry wild animal or 2 could have a meal. I could not believe how quickly they vanished!
Somebody got a full belly.. so at least they weren't completely wasted eggs.
