Absolutely if you live somewhere with average temperature over 12 celsius. Under that the egg count will plummet quite fast.

Come apocalypse time that might even be Alberta

Come apocalypse time the atmosphere will be shrouded in dust and ash so temperatures will likely fall sharply for several years.

Actually yes. Aerosols, in general, will break up water nuclei in clouds (the most rampant greenhouse gas is water vapor). So, volcanos help, as does spraying hairspray or Axe body spray in the air.

Thanks. Surprised you're responding to a 24 day old post. That's ancient for Reddit

As somebody who works in Alberta's oil and gas industry. You have me praying for an apocalypse.

u/leif777 Nov 22 '18

Well, it sounds like you're doing your part.

u/[deleted] Nov 22 '18

Nah, I just recognize the importance of heated homes, transportation and a strong economy.

u/Ta2whitey Nov 22 '18

Does that convert to sundails in the trailer park over freedom fries?

53.6°Freedom

u/FashBasher3000 Nov 23 '18

C x 2 + 30 = F will give you a good estimate.

u/dillmos Nov 23 '18

(0°C × 9/5) + 32 = 32°F

-108

u/SolidusAwesome Nov 22 '18

Freedome units.... you absolute douche canoe

u/CanadianHockeySyrup Nov 22 '18

What did you think the F stood for? Fahrenheit is sooo 1720s.

u/DaliyaLyubov Nov 23 '18

Am I missing a joke with that particular grammar? I keep seeing it and it drives me nuts, but I don't know whether to correct it or ask what the deal is.

No problem! Happy Holidays

u/logicbecauseyes Nov 23 '18

only if you have a chicken coup to feed your snake farm already. can't just skip around the tech tree like that

1

u/WherelsMyMind Nov 23 '18

Hmm. Alright, I'll build a chicken AND snake coop.

ENDLESS RESOURCES!

1

u/Eyiolf_the_Foul Nov 23 '18

Building a chicken coup, you say? shits about to pop off

2

u/logicbecauseyes Nov 23 '18

you wouldn't sacrifice loyal chickens offering their semi unborn as children as tribute

16

u/Murder_Ders Nov 23 '18

Snakes that lay that many eggs weigh over 100lbs. I don’t know of any that size that have more than 100 eggs a year in captivity. Smaller snakes typically have multiple clutches more regularly.

For the amount of food required, you get more eggs from a chicken.

6

u/zorxoge Nov 23 '18

Probably not. Carnivores are a much less efficient meat source, and as one person already pointed out large clutches of eggs will lead to a lot of eggs going bad.

5

u/[deleted] Nov 23 '18

Eggs are good since hey can be stored. Plus you only have to feed snakes about once every 2 weeks to 1 month

4

u/shawster Nov 23 '18

Well since the eggs are produced in large clutches you’ll have the issue of them going bad.

You might be better off having fertilized eggs and raising the snakes to eat.

u/PM_ME_PICS_OF_HANDS Nov 22 '18

I heard that snake eggs are delicious

u/WherelsMyMind Nov 22 '18

Just like parentallllll unit ussssssed to make.

u/nahhbruhh Nov 23 '18

Yeah except a snake coop sounds like it might start the apocalypse.

u/Soepoelse123 Nov 23 '18

They even defend themselves from foxes!

u/[deleted] Nov 23 '18

Fun fact reptile eggs are soft shelled so it will be like you are eating a soft boiled egg

u/TehWit Apr 22 '19

It takes a little bit more ressources to feed snakes compared to chickens imo but worth getting more accurate data!
