Seems to atleast double every year though :)
1-3 is a good starting number IMO.
Best of luck!
30 is about my end goal as well. I doubt I'll be able to stay at 30 but that's the goal. This year if everything goes perfect I will have 25 clutches this year, but more realistically I would guess 18-20 since a lot of my females are young and may not take. My problem is that I have too many double recessive combos going in my head.
Re: How many clutches did you get in your first year breeding?
This year will be my first. I'll have 1. I hope!
Next year plan to do three or four. Right now I'm planning for my top to be 10-15. I want to stay small but still have fun with some morphs. I might breed other kinds of snakes also. I'd like to try some live bearers too.

Re: How many clutches did you get in your first year breeding?
Our first year we had 1 clutch of Pastel het SKA(Don Juan) to normal(Lucky).
She laid 8 eggs and 4 went bad about a week in to incubation and I didn't know how to seperate them so after consulting with a few breeders we sprinkled anit-fungal foot powder on the bad ones and the other 4 hatched out fine. We got 0.1 pastel 50%het SKA and 2.1 normal 50% het SKA.

Re: How many clutches did you get in your first year breeding?
Well my first year was several years ago... so I'm just going to say this is my first season all over again since I haven't bred any snakes since then.
I am planning on only one clutch this year (unless I get a breeder female hypo).
het. pied x het. pied
and if I get a female hypo....
spider het hypo x hypo
to make some killer honeybees!!:please:
Re: How many clutches did you get in your first year breeding?
My first year I had 5 and all hatched out perfectly. Whoo hoo! This year I'm hoping for 20. Lots of 3+ year old virgins this season. Can't wait!
Re: How many clutches did you get in your first year breeding?
I had two clutches my first season and I'll probably have six this year if everything goes as planned.
Re: How many clutches did you get in your first year breeding?
well this is our first year and so far we only have 1 pair breeding (spider x normal)
