I actually kind of agree with J. I would like to know of anyone that has gotten an adult WC female in that was eating well and up to weight, and has gotten them to breed that year or the next. It normally takes a very long time for them to get use to the new enviorment. J has tons of experience in this trade he has been in it for ever and he knows what he is doing.



I have wilds ---they do eat, they do well but i would much rather own and would sugest to others to buy CH babies and grow them up if you want diverse bloodlines. An adult WC female can take up to 3 years or so to get settled in and actually lay a fertile clutch when breed in captivity, where as a CH female can be up to size in 3 years or under and will cause much less problems, with feeding, parasites and better clutches.



I am not saying that WC females do not breed and lay in captivity, i am just saying it takes time.
