Yep, that's right, I have one hot gal. And I don't mean sexy . I purchased her September of 2002. Placed her with a 85 gram proven male December of that year. Yes, I am positive she is female, and yes, she was of appropriate breeding weight - 50ish grams. She was in with one other female as well, making it a 1.2 group.I noticed that she resisted the male's advances when I placed them together, but they were in a 40 gallon breeder so I left them alone and assumed she would later become willing and they'd work things out. The other female began to lay, so I removed her, leaving the male and Mrs. Hottie. They've been together ever since, with a few separations in between to try and liven things up upon reintroduction. Nope - didn't work. No eggs. I did also try her with another male for a few weeks in April, but nothing came of it either so I placed her back with the original male because I'd rather her breed with him. So... does anyone have ANY suggestions as to how to reform her? I suppose I should try and cool her, but I honestly don't think it will help. I cooled her last year before placing her with the male and it did no good. Any other suggestions are very welcome - she's a nice rainbow female and I wish I could talk some sense into her! Thanks for any advice at all...

. . . Barry White music always turns the trick.

In a pinch - Lou Rawls will do.

Don't believe me, I'm sure it's in the Leopard Gecko Manual. . . .

No Fru-Fru morphs in the herp room

I must admit it's been a while since I read it, but I don't seem to remeber the Barry White bit Monte . Perhaps I should refresh myself, eh? Hehe... I'm about frustrated enough to try it! Oh well, that's the way things go I guess . Happy herping!
