Heres the problem, and please take this in context, if experience were rocket fuel, you couldn't launch a pencil, or if it was gasoline, you couldn't power a peeants motorcycle halfway around a BB.

Now that the jokes are over with. All you do is theorize to and fro. grab that info there, and here, or over there. No related and out of context data, hahahahahahahahaha do you get that?

Stop with the dang theory and DO SOMETHING. Some of us have been doing what your doing NOW since the 60's and we produced healthy strong snakes for sale,just like you do now, only way more and for a way longer time. In fact, many of the lines here now WERE PRODUCTS of those days. Your not NEW. And your not doing anything thats not done a million times over.

Yet you act like what your doing is something new. ITs only new to you. And that is a great thing.

The point is, in the next 10 or 15 years, you may get like some of us older folks, get tired of doing the same old thing over and over, and DO SOMETHING DIFFERENT.

You know like try and raising groups and actually SEE WHAT BONDING IS. because at this time, you haven't the foggist idea what it is.

In the field, we see the same individuals attend, hang out and copulate, year after year, after year. Yet, they are in a group of many. That is bonding. They choose to be with an individual, they choose to work with an individual. They live with that individual. With varanids, when they bond, the male will help make the nest and protect it. And share food, if its not starving. and so much more. Bonding does not exclude groups, nor a few females instead of one, one is a human thing.

There are studies going on right now that suggest that even in dens, there are as many as three different groups, that while they are in the same den, do not socialize with the other groups in that den.

We see this with many many species INCLUDING KINGS.

The cool part that was and can be dulicated in captivity, and its EASY, if a person would just shut their trap and actually do something. You've been told what to do.

Consider, behavior is NOT EXACT and has ranges and degrees, groups raised together can have a totally different degree of bonding, then two put together in winter, which is not bonding, its simply introducing. dang if naivity was pain, you would be screaming. hahahahahahahahahahaha

The point is, this has been explained to you a million times, but you simply do not have the education to understand it, HOW CAN YOU? YOUR NEW. Get out and learn, learn in the field, learn in captivity, learn by research, but stop the learning thru babble.

At this point, Just do it! Go buy sports shoes first, then DO IT!, Just do it, TEST THE FRIGGIN THING YOURSELF

Then when you screw up, you can ask what you did wrong. As I am sure you will. Cheers and best wishes Remember, Humor
