How many of you warm your males first?

Ryan Hoyer Jun 27, 2008 01:47 PM

Just wondering how many of you warm your males (thayeri, greeri, mex mex, or ruthveni) before the females when coming out of brumation. And, why do you beleive that is more advantageous than simultaneous warming? Conversely, if you avoid doing so because you feel it is disadvantageous for breeding, what leads you to beleive that?

I always bring everything out together for no particular reason other than being easier on me.

Thanks for all the replies everyone. I find it interesting that some people I have spoken with that don't participitate on this forum do warm their males early, but no one here replied that they do.

Thanks again!
Ryan
