Re: Breeding Progress
Hahaha...I wish there were...
I know what you''re talking about...I notice the same with my parietalis, every year...a period of 2 or 3 months in which they dont feed very well...And every year I'm worried. Nothing happens...they keep looking good, they're active...they just wont eat very well. How old is your girl? (sorry if you already posted the answer...dont feel like going tru the whole topic ) |

Re: Breeding Progress
That's the thing, she's not that old. Judging by her size and growth rate, I'd have to guess she's an '05 (maybe an '04, but I doubt it). I know that in the wild, they'll become mature at a size that's smaller than she is, or the second or third year (males the first or second).
I was concerned about the age issue before, but I figured they just wouldn't mate if she wasn't mature.
