OK, I wont name any names here, but here is a situation I am in.

A guy I agreed to do a trade with said he had a 1500 gram female lesser that he was willing to trade me after she laid her eggs. The snake came in tuesday and looked fine, didnt look skinny like she had dropped eggs the previous week, but wasnt fat either. The guy claimed that this 1500 gram female dropped 9 eggs. yes, 9 eggs. I weighed her, and she was 859 grams. Not an unhealthy 859, but thats a far cry from the 1500 gram female I was expecting. My 1500 gram females lost about 1/3 of their weight when they dropped their clutches, and they were much bigger than the female in question. I guess my question is...is it possible that this female could have possibly dropped 9 eggs...if she did wouldnt she be much skinnier? I did not get a pic of her on 9 eggs, or any for that matter. I just want to know if I am getting hosed again. I put this in the breeding section because of the weight issue, not sure where else to put it.
here she is just hanging out
