Hi all
Today I decided to take Louis and Larry to Shabeer the reptile vet to see if they are both males as I suspected. He gave them a good look over and pronounced that Larry is actually a girl!!! I'm so chuffed!! I have been told that breeding boscs in captivity has not yet been successful in SA.
Has anyone managed to get them to lay eggs and have the eggs hatch in SA? If so, just how difficult was it? My two are both the same age (12-14 months) and completely unrelated.
They are both over the 60 cm mark and Louis weighs over 1.6 kg already. Fortunately Shabeer said they were not too fat and looked really healthy, so I am pleased about that.
I think they are too young to breed still but would like to know at what age they are mature enough. I would like to give it a try when they are old enough, so if anyone has ANY advice, I would be really grateful.
I can use the next year or so to make sure they are really healthy before they are actually ready to breed.
Thanks
Marion
