What does dwarfism have to due with Darwin? Dwarfs exsist in many different species is apparently a possible gene selection in any brood. Certianly feed and lighting and other factor can play a role, but there are dwarf Collared Lizards and other species from certian locals as well, exact same specie but just smaller. It may have nothing to do with your husbandry in my humble opinion becuase this has been observed in breeding groups of mmany species of lizards, while I think you have nice looking Solares I am still of the opinion that feeding a 80 percent ant eater in nature is not an acceptable husbandry protocol, or at least for the average person, so I am going to recommend ants--but I appreciate you experiment and certianly the proofs in the pudding. Last of all one hast to accept the tenants of Darwinism to tie the two together, don't assume that we all do...... :0) Cheers!!!
