Okay, something to add, not sure I've ever mentioned it. This is how I came up with breeding in groups. YEARS ago, I read an article on Madagascar where the author found a group of gravid females together. I figured if they group together in nature, maybe there's something to it. So, I tried group breeding and it worked great. This season I did 3 breedings 1.1 and all three took. I didn't get the results I wanted, but out of the three litters, each one had atleast 1 slug, and one litter came a week early, but in doing so put her in line with the other 2 females. These babies, unlike a normal Dumerils litter, went a week before shedding and had a lot of absorbing of the yolk left to do. She had her prelay shed and everything was in order, she just dropped early. The babies lived, but for whatever reason are extremely cranky! Anyway, that's where I came up with the idea to try group breeding. Take care.
