I have seen 2 snakebytes that he has used an ultrasound. I think one was just a few weeks ago.

If you're into buying high-end males, an ultra sound would be an amazing investment. It would allow you to stretch your males much further by plugging them in at the right times.

It used to be that older breeders thought that the female was throwing slugs because the male did not fertilize all the eggs. It's nice to finally have more information!

I have an older machine too, paid 1,200.00 for it. It's so old that I can't upload pics with it, a lot of the capabilities have been disabled:tears:. I am thinking about upgrading.:please:

Thanks for that link. I really enjoyed this quotation "Last year we got 16 clutches from a single two year old male, and this year we are pushing the possibility of getting 20+ clutches from a single 18 month old male!"

Wow.

Since I know people make typos, it's easy to ask the person a question and get a more lucid answer.

I had help and other eyes looking over my site. I know it's extremely difficult to catch every error, when you are reading for content/context and you know what you mean.

You sort of start assuming other people will know what you mean, too.:)

P.S..using the Ultrasound, I have gotten 9 eggs more consistantly than not. My problem is I don't like waiting too long..and giving eggs a chance to possibly reabsorb..it's a timing issue.
