What’s really creepy is that they give birth to live young. I would have shat a sailboat if while I was skinning it, I came across them wriggling around.

probably would have gotten the flame torch and lit them up!!!!

Probably better to just burn the whole house down and move if that were the case. No need to take a chance you missed one.

You got that right!!!!

Shooter  - Very cool post and pictures. You're more ballzy than me dissecting those eggs. 

We caught this female a week or so ago. She had nine eggs. Maybe less six inchers come September. 

Tyler1215 - crazy, but would probably work.

Man that is crazy.....9 of them!!!!

Thats about average depending the age of the female. It can be more than twice that for an older one.

Probably average or below. At a little over 3ft., this snake was just starting to get on the 'big' side. Always glad to safely get them gone.

I think someone in this thread said they saw 18 eggs or so in one. That is totally believable in a 5 or 6 ft snake.
