    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....

Assuming all goes well with quarentine this year and we get breeding, my question is for next season. I know that females retain the males sperm but for how long. This year I'm breeding bell to a blizzard, but next year want to breed her to a hypo tang. Would she be good next spring to breed to the hypo? I've had females before lay non fertile eggs as they were with no males, so would I just watch for unfertile eggs next year or will she stop laying at the end of the season? Oh, our girls will only be visiting the guys for breeding.
 
You should have no problem breeding her with a different male next season. It is my experience that females usually only lay up to 3-4 clutches from a single pairing.
