Hi folks, As some of you know, I now have a young female around 6 months old, and though I have no intention of attempting breeding till atleast 12 months, im researching the details of the breeding process in advance.
At present she is still a pleasant green with darker green dots when alarmed and not showing any other coloration, she did do some scratching at the floor at one point, but at the time she was temporarily housed in an exoterra pending completion of her cage, so I have discounted that, but have a soil bucket in her cage anyway.
Other than pacing/digging due the onset of an infertile clutch (if this occurs)
can you please perhaps point me to images of gravid/receptive female veileds
since descriptions can be misunderstood.
What is a recommended weight/age minimum before attempting any introduction and could you please explain any tecknique you use to ensure the safety of both lizards? Aka how long do you leave them together if neither show immeadiate interest?
How long do you leave them together if they do show interest (female displaying receptive colors)?
At what point do you separate them?
Do you reintroduce after a given period to insure 'x' many matings/greater chance of success?
You get the idea
All responses much appreciated. At present Im none to confident having never gone here before and im on the fence about weather or not to ever attempt it, all the storys about females and related issues that put me off females to begin with come rushing back.
Everybody went here for the first time at some point no?
