They really are nice. Congratulations on your good work.



Don't think excessive heat will effect fertility long term. Even if sterile, not going to stop breeding behavior. Just be shooting blanks.



These guys most likely breed on a wet/dry monsoon schedule. Slightly cooler and drier then warmer and wetter to induce breeding. Look up seasonal weather patterns from where they come from. Try to simulate that.



Just some thoughts. Honestly have no experience with them.
