Eight egg clutch! What's your largest clutch so far?

Thanks everyone for the responses! I forgot to ask in the initial question, how old are the females that produce your largest clutch? Everyone always talks about size but in my experience- genetics, feeding, and age play such an important role in clutch size! My best producing females are 7-10+yrs old and can produce 7 to 10 or more eggs several years in a row.

My Enchi girl that gave me 11 last year was her first clutch ever - she hatched in January 2013. The big normal girl that gave me 11 last year is at least 8 years old.

Oh well scratch that 11

13 Good eggs from one of my very first female, my pied project founder a 2006 Het Pied female who usually weighs in at 3800/4000 grams.

Egg average 102 grams each.

My biggest was 10. Last year 8. Same female, it was her first years breeding. She was 2 last year and now 3. Wanna say she was 2500 grams or so before laying this year. Last year she was 1800 something.

Hey Doc,

I had a 9 egg clutch the other day, but am expecting two double digit clutches in the next few days.

I hope all is well.

On May 26th I had a 14 egg clutch, 13 viable eggs and one slug.

When I first started breeding (in 1999) I got a female from some crackhead kid who didnt want her anymore. Couldnt even tell me how old she was. Big girl "Hermione" was sweet as pie. When I first got her she was 1800 g. A few years later at about 3800-4200g she laid 12 good eggs and one slug for me. That was the biggest clutch I ever had.
