O.K. we've had the should you introduce male to female, female to male debate so here's another twist.
If you had a twin enclosure, one above the other, which had a removable panel to allow free passage between the two sections would this be an acceptable method of introduction of the two sexes? You would have, say, male in the bottom, female in the top and at the right time you would just open the panel and let them find each other. Do you think this would work or do you think they would be too interested in their altered environment to show too much interest in mating?
The reason I ask is that I am building/converting a new, large enclosure this weekend, (unless I spend too much time at the Herp Shop), and was toying with this idea.
