Dennis, You're right VP's are hard to predict sometimes and I'd say Extremes might be worse. My nicest VP tricolor female with almost no black laid slugs again this year. I bred her at 3 yrs and now at 4 yrs of age. I have never really had any issues where a snake laid bad eggs unless I didn't cool the animal (if needed..like graybands) or sometimes as animals go over 10 years in age I've noticed a decline in fertility. This female is a beast. She never refuses a meal and is about 5' long. I don’t think she is overweight? I know the male is good because he is the father of the other 2 VP clutches. I saw them hooked up a bunch. Not sure what happened? I'll give it one more year and if nothing she may just make a good pet snake for someone or I might hang onto her because it will be fun to have a hondo over 6' someday.
Maybe she does look a little chubby? That male is about 4.5'
