Another stupid myth we need to just stop. I would't breed ur female until at least a year old if not 2. Females can become ready to breed at almost any age, I've had females become gravid at 3 months and other not till a year and a half, I'm almost certain this has to do with bloodlines. If you care about your female you will not breed her, breeding females that young usually results in an early death. Not to mention from observation I have noticed that virgin females tend to have less problems with egg binding than a female who has been bred once or twice and then cutoff from breeding. If you want 20-50 babies then go ahead and breed her but remember you have to incubate them, then once they hatch you have to feed them thousands of crickets/flies, grow them until they are ready for homes and thn try to find homes for all these babies. Its very expensive and time consuming. Overall I wouldn't worry about finding a male unless your sure you want the responsibility of babies.
