i didnt get any response on my question about my male loosing weight in his tale. could he be loosing a far amount of weight in his tail while still eatting like a pig b/c of breeding him with too many females? his name is hudini and he has been busy this month with a few different females, i had him with 5 and as i noticed eggs on them i took them out and replaced them with 5 new females, but he still eats about the same but is loosing weight. also i am looking to get my breeders licence and am wondering if anyone knows the state of floridas website to get their state licence? and one more question, does anyone know mark bell's website or the website for reptile industries?
Thanks,
Garett

I think your male is only interested in breeding since you have all those females with him all the time. He is probably burning all the calories while mating and does not have enough fat to store in his tale. I would keep him by himself and forget about any more breeding. You do not want him to get weak and sick. He needs to rest up and fatten up his tale.
