    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

come on

I know you guy have had experance with this, please help. thanks-matt
 
2.3 is a good number to start with. You definately want an extra male. Beyond that you can have several more females, as long as both males are actively breeding.
I had one male breed 3 females last season. I like to keep it down to three, but an eager male can breed with more than that.
 
rack

as far as racks go should i use a 36" tub or an aquarium when the 2.3 and interduced together?
 
I don't use racks for adult balls, nor do I breed in groups. Many do, and that's their method.
I always opt for larger cages, especially for breeding females.
