    For those breeding at 400g. (and I have but did not get babes due to the stress of the fire last year, the female reabsorbed)

    I would be interested though in seeing people's success rates with young males. They may be breeding at 400g, but are you getting babes and at what ratio? I.e. are they fertilizing the entire clutch, are you getting more slugs, are you pairing more often...

    Enquiring minds want to know.
    BG thinks a lot of people are mistaking "locks" for "wraps". Plenty of young males will "wrap". BG sees it all the time, but most small males don't have the equipment to do the job yet. Some do though, but there is a big difference between a "lock" and a tail "wrap".
