Opinion with size difference

Hi All,

Can I get some Stimson's breeders opinions do you think a 54cm Male is going to be to small to breed with a 73cm F. Thats both SVL.

I would like to try the breeding them this coming season.

Thanks

David.

I have only slightly increased his feed, by 1 day and every second feed he gets two.

I haven't noticed to much of a growth spurt. .

Its ok, I'll try and see how things go.

nice comment thenothing

short of feeding him up a bit, there is still a bit of time, probably wait. It is better to be safe than sorry and cause needless stress for both of them and you.

if he is two years old and that size he will breed no worries at all.

I have stimmys here that have had various clutches and they are still under 75 cm
