    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....

Well, I seem to have sorted out the egg problems I had with some of my leos - I now have 11 eggs incubating nicely!

This leads me onto the next question; I have a lovely pair of albinos, male and female, of equal age, size and weight. They have produced 10 of the 11 eggs, the last one having been laid by the "other woman", without recourse to a male. Obviously this last egg will not be fertile, but as she is the same size and weight as the established pair, I wonder what is the best way to introduce her into their viv on a permanent basis? The last time I tried this was about three months ago; the male took up Leo-Surfing atop the female all round the tank, and it took several attempts to separate and dissuade him. They (the pair) were not hand tame then, they are now. So what would be the best way to start this new relationship?

Any advice and input is greatly appreciated, as usual.

Cheers,

Mike
 
Cleaning the cage and re-arranging the furnishings can help. This way all three will be on equal footing in a new environment. Amorous advances by the male are to be expected. The novelty should wear off in a week or two.
