breeding

fruitionx May 21, 2003 11:07 AM

hey,
i was wondering if itis possible to "cross breed" a red or orange saharan uro with a yellow one? I was just curious, i'm not ready to start breeding yet but i am just wondering. I mean its not a different breed is it? just different colors?? it just got me thinking...
also how often do females become gravid per year? or how many clutches a year can a female have?
Thanks!
any other breeding information would be great!

The boy! anyone have name ideas??

I think you can "cross breed" them, I believe they are the same species.

I believe also they have only one clutch per year.

As for a name... I like Diablo, (I think you mentioned "Match" as well), Chispa (Spanish for spark), Fiero (fierce), or perhaps my lizard's name, Draco.
