all this talk has got me reading, whats everyones opinion on this:
"It is generally agreed (among the dwarf monitor breeders in the u.s.) that baby Ackies determine their gender according to social group after hatching."

Oh and I just re-read ya post, I didnt co-author the article. That was 2 of my good friends though grant and gavin, who have both bred baritji succesfuly many times. Im Brodie

Sorry Brodie,

I had thought you were Grant.

I was very tempted when Gavin sold his breeding set up a while back. They ended up selling quick and I am left with regrets. Mind you they are probably not on the Vic schedules anyway.

sounds a little far fetched to me, seems more likely to be a sales pitch - "Buy a group from us, you'll get at least one male and all/most of the rest will be girls!!!" but hey, who knows?
