I really do not see what is so funny, I have provided everyone here with a general understanding of the procedure, and what the injection actually does for the female, chemically. Is it so unbelieveable?
Hell, look at us humans... and look at the frequency of women who currently use fertility drugs to help them get pregnant. Also, look at the percentage of those women who have received such treatments, and the number of fraternal twins, triplets, quadruplets, etc. These drugs cause the female to ovulate, some cause the female to ovulate at irregular rates.
This is virtually the same thing that I have been experimenting with on a portion of my collection.
Again, I do not understand what makes this so unbelieveable. Like I said, I will make sure I take photographs in a month's time, when I try this on the first non-euprepiosaurid varanid. I have no doubt in my mind that the same will work for V. varius as well. The only doubt that I have, is that although the female is of breeding size(almost 5'), the male is significantly smaller, and am not sure if he is old enough or capable of producing fertile sperm. Time will tell, but I find this whole thing to be rather interesting, and perhaps ahead of its time???
Cheers Mate,
Bob
