Hi Tim,



Hope all is well, your welcome to visit again if your in Vegas.



And yes I did determine some of the males produced viable sperm later in the year. The only ones I observed this with was two paticular mountain kings.



I would still intoduce pairs (if kept seperately) at least once per week 3-4 weeks out of brumation and continue doing so the entire breeding season. This insures the female has access to a male IF she is in fact ready.



The sample is to determine weather or not to use a different male.



Tad
