#6!

[kenya_1977]

Well, decided to do weights on my females today and I'm now able to confirm that the female I got from Marcus is gravid with clutch #6. A whopping 19.3 grams (total weight gain of 4 g since egglaying) and no male introduction since well before I received them in November. The eggs were blaring at me as soon as I picked her up today to do the weights.

The female that I brought back from Cameron Highlands is also putting on weight like a champ (18.4 g, also a 4 g weight gain since egg laying) and I'm pretty sure she's gravid again too!

This is very interesting and exciting stuff.

Look here,most viable clutches Ive ever gotten is 4 in a year,grasshopper is not supposed to outdo the master.You took the pebble and ran with it Good stuff woman,looks like the things weve been talking about are coming to fruition.I think we shall see more if the theory proves correct.I wish I could keep my temps under 80 all year.I would own too much stock in PGE by the time I tried to do that.Those of us in parts of Cali know exactly what Im talking about. :roll:

My temps are still 67-71 right now.. until we get a warming trend.. I'm just glad that I'm able to shed a little more light to the felinus puzzle.

I had to move my oldest eggs back in the main room so I can start warming them up for hatch. They are just a week shy of 4 months incubating now. Hopefully this will trigger them to hatch.
