I'm with you Jerry. If my thoughts sounded like an "absolute/only" they weren't meant that way. I probably should have said just from my experience, condition seems to be the major factor. I don't know that it's the only one. And that experience is with getula type Kings, my z's and pyro's have never done that even with heavier feeding, but I started working with those a few years after the others, so maybe it was already in mind. It will be interesting to see if Allan's eggs are fertile or not, as time will tell him/us that. If there is one thing I have learned over the years, be it from captive care or in the field observing, it's to never think that something is only/always just one way. That's when I have gotten my biggest lessons....lol. It's rather nice to not be so smart any more, makes the fun factor and the interest level much greater! In this case, the more info/experience relayed and gathered the better.
