People trying to breed Halmaheras..

Postby Dakota » Thu Dec 26, 2013 10:21 pm

I know people do not breed this locale of gigas gigas (well, any locale of gigas gigas for that matter), but I was wondering..

Do any of you guys know anyone who has tried to breed them?

Surely there is someone out there whom has tried? Someone informed me that Doug Dix is claiming he breeds them, but everyone I ask says he does not. Anyone else perhaps? I ask, so I can get into contact with them to see if they are willing to sell a female that they have no success with.. just like I did with the Merauke pair I bought from "Iceman".

I know you guys are getting tired of me posting, looking for a girly, so my deepest apologies.. I just need to have one! :P

I didn't not say they were never bred before, just an odd few. And the one that ML posted was only bred once.

Dakota, I've been trying to breed these for 4 or 5 years. No joy so far. Mark.

Hmmm I know one guy who is looking for a breeding animal but isn't selling.
And the guy who breed the anery/axanthics hasn't successful bred again and it's been like 3-4 years now.

Could you ship me your Halmaheras Mark so I can give it a try? :wink: I kid.. I cannot afford importing right now anyways. :( Or I'd be all over Germany's "faunaclassifieds" I call it..

ML, could you share the name of this guy you are speaking of? You know if he is looking for breeding animals, but has he found any, yet?
