Our females are still copping. We have removed all supplemental heat in their cages, going after a new theory. Follicles have grown a bit, and cops are still occuring, but the normal rate of breeding progression is not there, which I would think has to do with lack of heat.
But the Desert females that have been bred in the past had no supplemental heat, so we are rolling with that approach. Hopefully slow and steady will get us to where we want to be. It is just extra slow.
As for the Desert clutch posted on KS, it is past hatch date, but I haven't seen a peep from that breeder again since the day he posted the clutch.
