Picked this guy up form Hermin Soler. He's great and according to his feeding record he's a champ. He wieghs in at just over 400g. Should have him ready this season.

Thanks Hermin.

But it can be done. Don't be too upset if it doesn't though. I got a male up to 800g in 8 months and he bred 5 females, all laying eggs before he hit 1 year of age. But I wouldn't count on it.

I am just optomisitic. If it doesn't happen, that'll sink just fine. This guy eats like a monster and I have a friend that has his pastel breeding at 465g. His females have procudes viable eggs. So I am just hoping for the best.

Good luck this year Jeff.

But if he goes, you won't need luck selling those babies! If they look anything like him, they'll move like hotcakes!
