Nope-the number of eggs is entirely dependant on the female-size, age, and nutritional status. Male has nothing to do with it-unless he's SO small and young that his sperm is not yet viable (and even then the female will still produce a large clutch of infertile eggs) That's why large females are so prized by breeders.

Congrats on the hookup! I hope my '07 male does as well this season.
