[QUOTE="Casey K., post: 175127, member: 1090"] This is true, but if you slow the male down by keeping him at cooler temps and feeding him less often, you can power feed the female and increase temps on her so that she will outgrow the male and you can pretty much control their molt cycles by simulating their environments. This is a well known method that has been used by many breeders, including myself. :) Remember, the female doesn't always have to be bigger than the male to be "mature". There have been several successful pairings where the male was bigger than the female. [/QUOTE]
