I have to ask....

Why should one of one's top goals be mass production? I would think that the top goal would be to focus in on things like specific desired traits and characteristics of the animals to improve/outproduce on prior stock. If anything, I personally wouldn't WANT an enormous clutch. As a result of large clutches, I often see sellers end up resorting to wholesale in efforts to be rid of excessive "product." I just don't understand what exactley such a high egg count in our species achieves? Now if our snakes were like Ball Pythons, with their clutch odds....I could maybe get the concept...but they are not.

No ill intent here, I'm just bringing up a genuine inquiry.
