The huey part is that need to know that, as it does absolutely no good. I also mentioned I raised up many generations without suppliments.



I do not care if you want to make your husbandry all complicated. You may enjoy that. But I am hoping to influence those what want to make it simple, and easy. The reason I say that is, IT IS SIMPLE AND EASY.



What you do not understand or appear to not understand is, That with decent husbandry and a superior ability to digest and metabolize their food, monitors can get away with consuming less then optimal food and progress very well.



Of course you question that, but YOU my scientific friend have not tested anything. For instance, not that your successful, what were the times between clutches, or the times from copulation? My bet is a month or more. Please tell us. And no its not a contest.



We commonly see eight to ten days between clutches in many individuals. And commonly have monitors such as Ackies, storrs, tristis produce clutches every two weeks.



No its not a contest. What it tells me is, they HAVE to be running at different speeds then ones that have clutches every month. Or every other month. Or once or twice a year. You see your the one who is not thinking. Producing clutches, produces information. Producing them in different condition sets, changes the results



With that said, monitors producing clutches every two weeks MUST have more efficent metabolism.



Which points to this, it appears those formulas you point out, because obsolete at that rate of metabolism.



To understand this better, I have seen wild monitors having half their tails and the entire top of them burnt off. And heal and survive. I do not believe a captive could do that, vet care or not. I have a lacie that had 20% of her side and parts of the front leg get burnt off and she healed, but its taken two years.



This may indicate that wild monitors may have metabolistic abilities we flat do not understand. As is clutches in eight days to you.



You see, it appears you are like the others, you do not want to talk about monitor. Oh you do, as long as it shows you in good lite. The problem is, none of us are in good lite. We all suck. So why not be honest and simply have fun and have decent discussions.



You see, you think to get eggs or babies is the end. As in end result. I say that because you think thats all I care about. You know what, ITS ONLY THE BEGINING. They're are a billion levels of information(success) That start with recieving eggs and babies. In all reality, F2 is the very start of capitive monitors. The start not the end.



Years ago, I often stated, I did not learn about a species until f5 or so. The reason was, about then I stopped doing the unnecessary and actually started concentrating on the necessary.



U know, thats what makes me so mad, you seem to know so much more and you have only recieved a few eggs.



Nothing against you, I have always said you appear to be doing great. I do understand it must be hard to think past your own experience level. So please understand, its very hard for me to think below my experience level. Cheers
