that IS a serious question- at least this:
do uro's(big egyptians esp.)get extra aggressive or stressed from a lack of mating? or does it actually make them more aggressive to mate? health,longevity:any correlation?
i live in the NEast, some seasonal variation is unavoidable(they know)i don't mess with the temps much,mainly hours.
can you halt brumation if the lizard itself initiates it?
the things that float in my newbian mind...i worry for kooz' future, not so much eggs(i would need someone to sell them for me-i don't care too much about that stuff-one pair will never make me rich,or even break even.just a hobby. then i have mali's-what are those babies 35-75 bucks tops nowadays?point is it is not a delusion of granduer with an economic plan.much respect to those who DO this, tough gig as they say)
..SO.. is it OK NOT to mate?is the question.
hopefully i will not have these worries and i will find a suitable"mate".
