Bad season, anyone else?

This year seems the clutches are not meeting the odds for good combos when they hatch for me. I'm saying alot of "1 in 4 odds huh? this clutch doesn't understand math..." We'll see what the rest of the clutches bring... but I am getting a good amount of slugs and boob-eggs, not too high where I say something's up, but more than usual, but it cycles like that anyways; though there is always next year!

I always hit a point where I question if any took. This year was no exception: huge gap where 3 clutches came out and I thought all my big females didn't have anything in spite of feeling eggs when palpating... any chance your other eight are just making you anxious and being delayed?

7 out of 9 for me

I bred 26 females this year and will see around 7 clutches. One girl laid 10 slugs for me a couple weeks back.. Ouch! However, I did go through a move in August and bought a few proven breeder females in august as well so it isn't too surprising.

Hopefully next year will be better. :)
