Can 2 males sire 1 female. I put my male motley het lavender with my female opal several times. Didn't see anything happen so i put my male bizzard in with her for a couple days. Had 13 hatchlings, looks to be 7 aneml,4 normal, and 2 opals maybe. Any opinion is appreciated. thanks
 
my guess would be yes, because females can retain sperm. if lion cubs in the same litter can have different fathers, why not snakes?
 
Most definitely! You can even have a split clutch with one father being from a previous breeding (in a second clutch situation) or even from last year.

Given no hidden hets, the 7 normals are fathered from the male motley het lavender, the amels from the blizzard and not sure about those opal things...could they be lavenders at all? If they were lavenders they would be from the male motley. If that male motley is het lavender and amel...then there's no telling who is the dad of anyone but the normals.
