Indeed.

Sperm retention can be a tricky subject with the hogs. If you buy breeder females to breed with your select males, unless a codom trait, they could have sperm retained from the previous owners' males.



Another cool thing is that some female corns and garters have sired clutches from 2 different males within 1 clutch. Would be neat to see if that works with hognose as well.
