Your thoughts on the brumation possibly causing it. I dont understand how brumation would have anything to do with it. In incubation the temps would be effecting the embyros whereas what would it be effecting in brumation? I can see that it could possibly effect the sperm count in the males or egg viability in females but not quiet sure how it would effect the out come of the offspring.It is something howeve I think we should all try to keep

I have heard that men that have sons have lower testosterone levels than men with daughters.

I really don't know Toby. I was just saying if it is impossible to cause sex determination by incubation temps (discussed at lenghts on other forums)then maybe its brumation. As to how it effects sperm? Lets see. Well sit you in the freezing cold and then sit you in a hot sauna for a few hours and check your testosterone levels. lol!
