Double Clutching!!!
Ok,
So I'm not 100% sure how common it is for a western hognose female to lay multiple clutches in a single season, but so far... all my girls but one have done so...
First girl laid 9 bad eggs, and 2 months later laid 8 good ones.
Second girl laid 14 good eggs, and looks like she's about to lay again,
Third girl laid 6 bad eggs and 2 good eggs, just laid another 8 good ones today (40 days later).
Forth girl laid 6 good eggs (hatched just recently), and looks like she may lay again...
Should I be EXPECTING all my girls to lay multiple clutches per season?? (not complaining... just a little shocked to find more eggs this morning...)
