Comments: -Feeding well.

-Is at least 22 years of age but only just under 4 foot long. Previous owners did not feed well enough when she was growing and bred her too early. Though she may also just be smaller sized genetically we are not sure.

**Update on size and genetics 2025** All her babies and grandchildren I've grown out on power feeding schedules are short so starting to believe she's just really short genetically.

-265 grams and 3' 10.5" as of 6/16/2019
-243 grams as of 3/24/2019 muscular and healthy visually.
-223 grams as of 5/8/2018
-298 grams as of 4/24/2016 this is the biggest she has ever been, and she looks very obese.

-Has laid at least 6 clutches already

-First clutch that we know of was with the first owner. Not sure what happened to it.
-Second clutch was with another owner and the incubator failed killing the eggs.
-Third clutch was an accident and was killed by fruit fly/gnats only weeks before hatching.
-Fourth clutch was 10 eggs that hatched and are currently with Tribalcorns.
-Fifth clutch was a double clutch after the fourth with only 2 fertile eggs. These hatched living offspring and one is with Tribacorns.
-Sixth clutch was again with us which resulted in 13 healthy fertile eggs. eight were sold, one hatchy died early on, two bad eaters were sold as feeders, and the remaining 2 babies are currently living with Tribacorns.
-Seventh and final clutch resulted in 1 fertile egg and 16 infertile duds after a double clutch. She had significant trouble passing these eggs this time around so we are looking into possibly spaying her since the chances are high that even if she is no where near males she will still produce an infertile clutch next year and the year after that based on her history. We incubated the last egg and it died only a day or so before hatching with a major kink in the neck and a slightly domed head. It was an aztec ghost corn snake.

-Is dewormed
