"To the contrary, accelerated growth rates and maturation have been shown to shorten the longevity of many types of reptiles, most notably Boids. If your experience shows differently, please publish your results! It would be a first in reptile husbandry."
* Do you have published results regarding the shortened lifespan of reptiles who experienced accelerated growth/maturation? I would be interested to read it/them.
* What monitors have you bred?
* Thanks for mentioning that birds have porous bones--I had completely forgotten that fact. Do you happen to recall if chicks (chickens) have porous bones as well? Since they don't fly, I thought perhaps they are solid.
