Important question?

My hogg island is 5 foot...can he still breed with a female at the same length or maybe a foot under and still succesfully breed a good clutch?...because i heard that the male should be smaller then the female.
thanx

Males are usually smaller but they don't have to "be" smaller.
I think who ever told you that was a little confused.
I wouldn't worry to much about the size of the males its more important to make sure the female is big enough and old enough.

I agree males can be larger. But i think 4 ft. is to small for your female. I would wait another year and try to get her up to at least 5 feet.
