She must love me... and she's been busy this year!

First off... I'll apologize ahead of time for no pics of some eggies.

Princess, my snow stripe, must really love me. Last year, she hooked up late (May 8th), and she laid her clutch on Father's Day last year (June 17th)!:dancer:

This year she hooked up much earlier, and laid a clutch of 19 HUGE fertile eggs... way to go girl! Anyway, she also double clutched this year, and guess what? She laid a second clutch of 16 eggs yesterday... Father's Day again!!:dancer:

Of the 16 eggs from the second clutch, 5 of them were definitely slugs, and several more that are questionable. Of course I'll incubate them all (minus the slugs) and maybe she'll give us 6-7 more.

Exciting! What a great father's day surprise!!!
 
Thanks for the compliments guys!

O.K., so I go this morning to snap a picture of the size of her eggs. It's a good thing I did it today, 'cause by the looks of things... they wouldn't be there tomorrow!! Today is day 60 on the nose.
