For me it was around 800g.

Last season I had a small male produce 2 clutches.

He was around 480 grams for the first clutch, and 540 grams for the second.

was at either of these weights? Did you cycle this guy while he was still a juve? Just interested, not doubting your word, Blink.

PS It's just that picts of these little guys breeding are few and far between!

Here he is at/around 520 grams, this female did not produce for me last year.

serpentcity Feb 12, 2004 08:43 PM

550gm, right? Or did he breed but produce NO offspring? If you cycled him, how cool and for how long? Thanks again! SJM

Hey knocked up 2 girls last year when he was under 550 grams.

As I stated earlier, "Last season I had a small male produce 2 clutches.
He was around 480 grams for the first clutch, and 540 grams for the second."

I have a 700 g male breeding now. We'll see if he fathers any eggs.
