The big book says its ok till the end of the month. Whats your views on this and if all good whats the best temps to hit them with this late into the season? Some breeders it seems keep the temps down to 20-23c whilst others have a constant warm spot 28-29c.
Thoughts peoples?

Is two females in the same cage with their heroic knight in shining armour ready to take their virginity going to put them off?

Yep, too late this year.
Technically possible still, though unlikely
Cheers

Yep, still possible but unlikely imo. If any would though, it would be antaresia, and it would never hurt to let them at it to find out.
Cheers

Lay off feeding them if you havent already done so......Put them togeather, with cool nights and nice hot days and it may happen. Leave the male in for a day or so...if you havent seen any action, take out the male for a day or so; then repet the process; keeping doing so while your still getting these cool winter nights.....good luck; you may need it.

P.S If they are still going at it does that mean the female isn't gravid? Or do they keep going regardless? As the female is starting to swell ever so slightly and I was hoping it was eggs.
