You can always give her to your nephew or someone you will like to bring to the hobby.

Yes, this is definitely more what I was thinking when I said "cull" -- NOT slaughter! I guess that is generally what that word implies (ie in livestock, which is what I am planning on going into vet med-wise), but as others have pointed out, the strict definition is to remove from your breeding program -- which is what I meant ... Not planning on "beefing" her ...
Unfortunately I don't have any nephews, and this gal is a bit on the feisty side as far as "pet potential" goes, but if I were to remove her from breeding I would likely sell her as a "pet/poor breeder." (Or just give her to my buddy, who has more patience than I do ...)
I don't know how old this girl is specifically; she came from a group that I thought was supposed to consist solely of proven females. 
So it sounds like most (other than ClarkT) would actually give her another shot, maybe even try pairing her at odd times, even though she's a normal? And Dr. Del does raise a good point -- it was the same (proven) male both seasons ...
I do like Luke's line of thinking, though: I need a danged ultrasound!

You and me both! I've actually been working on picking one up this summer myself. I've got a few females that haven't produced for me in a few years that I need to pay more attention to in that area.

Re: How many strikes ...
If I had a female lay slugs for a second year in a row, that's all I'd try her, unless she was one of my favorite morphs; and she was paired with a different male the 2nd time than the 1st.
