Hey how ya doing buddy? Those girls are smart, they are holding out for the BEST and FINEST DUDES, lol I have been hearing things also about temperatures being erratic/ cooler in colorado as well. The older lizards may be mating later this year due to the cooler weather.

The younger ones always come out early and stay out later I think, even in captivity I see it. Of course this is just my thoughts. I think you will see plenty of adults if you stick around for any length of time. As far as dividing up sexes and hanging in groups, NO, they do not do that. Males would not all hang together. May be just a time that more males have hatched, like cycles, some years there probably are more females spotted. May just be nature balancing things out some. Females are probably just now gravid or even laying (right now) and not out basking as much.

They are there ,,,,, Enjoy your vacation!
