Re: how many babies do T.s. pickeringii have?

it seems to depend on the size/age of the snake and the conditions they're kept under. my largest clutch was 8, unfortunately only 1 made it, but i heard of much higher numbers from other people in this forum.

I have noticed that some western species have smaller litter with larger babies. My red spot had 7 babies that were about 8 inches long last year.

Yes. . . I went through 12 hours of intense labor. Which is weird because all that squirming tickles.

*ahem* Let me clarify. My blue T.s. pickeringii, a female by the name of Tako, had six babies.
