Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

Not to mention the disinformation! Please take all of that to another forum, preferably your own.

Yes, it is true. I had a female that had laid eggs two years in a row, a proven breeder, that developed small hemipenes and preanal pores the next season.

Enough of this garbage. Please.
The effect of incubation temperatures on sex ratio, fertility, and sexual aggressiveness in leopard geckos has been well studied. I don't believe the term 'gay' appeared once.

i'm sorry if my post above were overly sarcastic for anyone. They were not intended to be mean towards gays or anyone else. I just wanted to announce my disbeleif in gay geckos but used the wrong tone of voice. Again, i am sorry for anyone whom i have offended

In regards to the incubation, I wouldn't recommend going any higher than 89 degrees or it might cause heat-stress.

I believe it originated with my senile butter, but drifted into sexual orientation. It ended with a bisexual male siring offspring that were then considered het for homo.
Or it was different discussion entirely.
All I can say, after being referred to this thread for a good laugh (which I got), is that I'm glad I don't breed geckos...some (and I definately DO NOT mean ALL) gecko breeders seem to wear their britches too tight.

I've got a "she-male" too. After 6+ years of laying fertile eggs, "she" grew hemipenes, started fighting with the guys, and breeding with the girls. Unfortunatly, she's now a lefty after losing a prolapsed hemipene. She never developed pores, and all the eggs she's sired have been infertile. Here're some pics I put together awhile ago. She still had both hemipenes when these were taken.
On topic, what would be the best cheap, silent thermostat to use to regulate a hovabator? I've got helix's for my racks and I love them, but I really don't want to spend another couple hundred on thermostats.

Wow. Thats prity, cool. Why many people may believe other wise, I think that homosexualism is a genetic mutation. Meaning that the creature doesn't have any choice in the matter, its just a natural fealing.
Not trying to offend anyone here, but in my step family...I have a homosexual Uncle, cousin, and brother. That is all in one step family(not my family). So I think that it is a gene that passes through generation.
Again, this is not a gay bashing post, it is mearly an idea.

I boot for Marcia, if you can't speak maturely about this matter, than don't breed geckos, because you probably couldn't get through a season professionally.
I have heard this mentioned, hot females and cold males but i never thought it was true.
