Posted by: skycock at Thu Jun 30 08:59:21 2005 [ Email Message ] [ Show All Posts by skycock ] be wary of temp sexed individuals though! anyone can tell you they incubated them for one sex or another because-since it is not a fool proof way of sexing-they cannot be held accountable for mess-ups. i breed leopard geckos, and with leopard geckos-though the temperatures are more well know on sex determinance-it is not 100% fool-proof. in geckos-the lower the temps, the longer they take to hatch-but you get more females, so then the higher the temps you would think you would get more males-but if incubated to much over 90 degrees you run into what they call "hot females" which have nasty attitudes and never breed for you. anyways-just input on the subject-your best bet is to either buy a couple of them and wait it out or try to find a reliable source who is selling actual c.b. animals-not one of those out there who claims that his 5 year old c.b. ADULT female has double-clutched for him the past two years. if you are looking for a c.b. baby pair for breeding purposes-i hope you have about ten years to wait it out for healthy growth rates! | ||
