 Is this possible??

So i bred my corns last year and my female did great and had a good clutch, but anyways... is it possible for her to hold on to the male sperm and make eggs without mating? i have not let them mate since last year and lately she is getting puffy like she is holding eggs! so is it possible?

Yes it is possible to have a second clutch without breeding a second time and actually happens fairly often.

Could be either or some of each. Two of mine double clutched this year & all the 2nds were slugs.
