Thanks a lot for the info!!! I read the article months ago, and just re-read it to be sure. (If you take a look at the article, it says very little about the best age to start breeding a male. It has plenty of info about females.)
In addition to this, I have scanned the web for various care sheets and have a book on veilds. I know where to go for this kind of information, which is exactly how I ended up here.
I am sure that this forum is for this very purpose. People who have done their research and just have further questions.

I understand your frustration with people who do not do their research when it comes to reptiles; however, I am an experienced reptile keeper for over seventeen years. I ask that you not be so quick to criticize, but more readily provide the information sought after by your fellow reptile keepers and hobbyists.

Hey, most of my males are ready to breed at 6 months. I usually try to wait until they're closer to 9 months. If you try to breed them at an earlier age, most of the time they really don't know how to tackle the deed at hand. Also, my females prefer the biggest, baddest males to mate with, and sometimes they will not be receptive to the smaller inexperienced males.
Hope this helps you,
Cricket
