jobi,
Sometimes I know people don't want to leave their comfort zone. I know I've had trouble doing that. It's kind of like you feel most comfortable with what you hear first. I think it's impossible for any one person to take a group of these lizards and find a common thread that will definitely, without a doubt help other keepers. I think there is too much variation between methods, etc. Like for example, you don't treat for parasites, peoeple like Marcia and myslef do and yet we are successful. So I think it depends on too many factors to really pinpoint any one thing as the culprit for any one problem. I haven't tried to breed the armata yet, but who knows, I will probably have a different experience than Marcia or Bonnie, who both had different experiences than you. We'll see. That is one of the things that I love about these lizards, not only are they awesome looking, but they are viable study subjects as there is so much ambiguity left in their requirements. As I said, I am possibly going to acquire a rather large group of coronata, I am looking foreword to observing them and trying to identify differences between them and the armata and the capra. Only time will tell, but I think most of us have lots to learn about them even still, I know I do.



Evan
