My adult hognoses are seperated for about 1 year now but last week I found 15 eggs. 12 yellow hard small ball like eggs en 3 white eggs. But I throw them al away, not planning to breed this year.
MY big female has done this with 2 clutches this year, I didn't put the male in with her so she could have a yr off - seems hognose don't like resting such a waste of her energy but what can you do? 30 eggs between the 2 lots wish I'd put a male in with her now lol.
ive keep reptiles for a number of years and i cant explain this at all. Ive got a western hog nose which has been with me for 8 years and have just found out its now a female, just last week she layed 25 eggs both me and my husband always thought its was male as in 8 years never layed one egg. i know they are not fertile. But its just strange after all this time. Any suggestions on this
