She normally lays over 25 eggs so you can see she has a long way to go. I'll post pics of the final count tomorrow.

Beautiful snake. She looks like she is going to lay a lot more than 25! How old is she?

Wow Tim! Like I said on the other forum, she looks like a very "fat" snake! She either has a ton of eggs or she's a super large snake. Which is it?

She's 10 years old. I wouldn't call her fat but she's very well fed, as are all of my snakes. Last year she laid 29 eggs in one clutch and they all hatched. I haven't measured her in a long time but I'd say shes between 4 and 5 foot. She laid her first clutch when she was 3 years old (21 eggs). She's laid right around 30 every year since then with close to 100% hatch rate.
Thanks for the compliments.

That's a big, beautiful Sunglow you have Tim. I'm guessing she is going to lay alot more than 25 eggs. Let us know the final tally.
