Are these six inch egg producers flukes, or are they the regular thing, because I've never seen an animal under seven inches produce viable eggs.

Also, I've not experienced the problems with widespread infertility. My colony of two males and five females produces five to fifteen hatchlings every year. However, many of my newer colonies have no success whatsoever(infertile eggs, overly agressive males, exceedingly resistant females, animals completely intollerant of humidity, etc). My argument would be that regional forms exist and that compatibility is of the utmost importance, much as it is in Leopard Tortoise breeding.
