She seems to have lost quite a bit of weight but she's already pounding rats again haha...

Its been a while since you had that dud clutch. She made up for it this time. Nice going.
It is easier to ask for forgiveness than permission.

Thanks a lot guys !

You're right Arno, I think that was back in 2010 ? The female that dropped those is gravid again so I'm holding thumbs !

Chris w, this particular female is huge (close to 2.6-2.7m) but the other one is much smaller (around 2.2-2.3m). Their eggs are pretty large as well, I would guess about 5cm long and 2cm wide but I'll measure a couple for you to be sure. The ones in the pic are in a 11L addis tub if that helps ?
