Where do you get your info? This is not true! The size and health of female determine the amount of eggs. Each egg has a 50% chance of producing a fire(co-dom) not clutch.

This is the second thread I have read that you are giving false/incorrect info. You should know your facts better before handing out advice/info. Nothing personal but we want to educate people not mis-inform:)

Thanks for the info, I was a little confused becuse I always heard that it is the size and health of the female. But I'm pretty new at this so I just swallowed his words :rolleyes:

Best of LUCK:gj: nice fire too!

Male has nothing to do with it-unless he's SO small and young that his sperm is not yet viable (and even then the female will still produce a large clutch of infertile eggs) That's why large females are so prized by breeders.

Agreed. :gj:

Lopez, perhaps you should gift yourself some newer BP books, it is a growing hobby, and we are continuing to learn new things. VPI comes to mind, and many many other people have said the NERD book is of equal value regarding BP's and the collective knowledge. Also, Phillipe Vosjoli is another great read.

Just some advice, keeping up with the current info is pretty important before you start giving people advice. ;)

Congrats on the lock, and fingers crossed for lots of female fires.

Fires are one of my favs. :)
