In regards to all the free roaming rescue iguanas. Im wondering doyou have all the females spayed? Im wondering how you will deal with there natural mating if left to do so? Also how are you going to prevent fighting between a big group of them enclosed in one room? Im coriouse as to how this will work.

: I know... this is always a debate. You rescue and you breed??

: It started with a couple of leopard geckos. Now I have a lot :-) I dont see masses of leopard geckos pouring into rescues... So I am OK with this. What happens to them... Well, for now, I am keeping all the offspring. I give some of them to friends or fellow rescuers who want a baby.

: My female jacksons had babies all on her own, with no help from me. These are live-born, so it was not as easy as just freezing the eggs. These are all being given to friends as well.

: Do I breed rescued animals? No. I only breed my own personal pets for my own personal enjoyment.

: I am not sure what to think of the tone of your post... But I think I know where you were going with it.

: Mark

: : OK, Mark.... You're working with a "rescue"/rehabber - CoRR if I remember correctly. You are also participating in your own "breeding projects" - intentionally? Do I want to ask what happens to resultant offspring?
