Dear Marcia I am in my last preparative before leaving.
I would like you to know that I am not the arrogant person that my post portrait me to be. I am only a passionate keeper and breeder that loves his animals.
When I first came here I was burning with the desire to tell you how fare your husbandry was from what it can be, no joke you can improve 10 folds, I didn’t say it because I feared this would hurt your feelings. I know I sound stupid and arrogant to you, I am sorry for this, but pleas try to understand that iv been studying the reproduction of reptiles for almost 3 decades, iv bred many species never bred before and some not even known to science, therefore when someone says something I take note and question this information, if it doesn’t fit with my own observations, then I discard it or use what’s good.
In this case gonocephalus, all the information was wrong! To prove it I incubated my way and incubated following Ingo’s way, the results are clear, mine hatched at 73 days and are doing excellent, feeding like champs, needles to say Ingo’s technique sucks! This is an 80 day old embryo, I feel like Iv put an end to this poor babies torture, because no dough about it, starving an embryo this way is cruel and unnecessary.
I will keep you informed, by the time we talk again my babies will be adults, pleas re read my posts, in them you will find keys to my husbandry, I strongly feel your lizards can benefit from this, otherwise I would not tell you.
My gonos when from nesting first clutch to nesting the 2 clutch 44 days, and 32 days for clutch no 3, my capra are showing similar nesting.
I am quit sure that 30 days between clutches and 55 days incubation is very possible for both these species, of course I will prove it to you, but I am telling you now in case you would like to follow my progress with your animals.
Pleas Marcia don’t ever let peoples tell you it cant be don, don’t fall for theories from peoples who never did it or cant see outside the box. Iv opened new doors for you to enjoy, once you cross one of these doors theirs an all new world to explore.
Il be thinking of you in the Salomon’s
Rgds
