yay for george!
[thats if it is fertile]

 

Very interesting video, thanks for that.

 

If he's the last of his kind, how can he be a daddy? Or lay eggs?

 

they probably used a similar species
or maybe he is one of those animals that can have sex with its self?

 

All Right. That makes sense then.

 

Reptart speaks the truth. His mates are actually of different but similar species. They kept two desirable females with him, and one laid eggs. Here's hoping George and his mate get their babies.

At first I thought this thread was about a human. :B
Congrats for George, that'd be sad if they were infertile and there's no more left.

 

LOL I was thinking, wait WHAT?! A 90 year old man!??
anyway, Yay for George!!!!

 

Way to go you old devil, you! Anyway, this is good news in my eyes. It'd be a shame if his species were extinct.
