Re: Jellybeans.. female only tank?

I wouldn't be surprised at all if parthenogenesis was possible. I'm not planning on breeding Raven, (and the last day of her brumation she had like 10 jelly beans) so we'll see what happens! I keep hearing more and more reports of parthenogenesis happening in more and more reptile species; i expect that the more captive-bred reptiles the world is keeping, more and more species will be shown to have this trait. Cool stuff!
