Elok breeding weight?

[DDReptiles]

Hey,

I am hoping to breed this species this year, but am wondering how old and how much should a female weigh before breeding. I know my males are ready to go, but female is a little younger/smaller.

Also if anyone has any extra CB females for grabs, let me know ;-)

Thanks Derek

Its very important that your elok females are not to young for breeding.
I think an age of 14 month is minimum, otherwise the females breaking easily

Adult females are bigger and stronger as adult males.
Eloks can produce clutches every 6 weeks, so its very important that you give them enough calcium and d3. Try snails.

Gravid elok females you find in nature at 11 of 12 months/year gravid.
Same in captivity.

Good luck!
