Free ticket earned for snake on cover and in title.
Rattlesnakes produce eggs but they don’t lay them, Rattlesnakes are ovoviviparous. This means that they nurture their eggs inside and then give live birth. It’s uncommon in the snake world. Most snakes lay eggs and then sit on them for a while. But though rare, giving live birth is not unheard of. About 20%-30% of all snake species give live birth as well. I'm counting this toward a free ticket since they do produce eggs.
