I think what they mean is that if you want to have 2 males, you need 12 females. It's an equation, apparently

Really? If you have problems, just use one male then. If you have problems with inbreeding, release your old male and buy a new one.

Don't worry, nobody's annoyed silly! :lolol: We're only trying to help you - that's what this forum is for!

Do males kill each other? If they don't then you don't really need to worry. (and here I was thinking all turtles were wonderfully docile animals...)

I would worry about turtles fighting. They don't kill eachother in a fight. I would worry about carnivores fighting (like lions, wolves, andwolverines)! ;)

Hmm... turtles fighting. Now I've heard everything! :rofl2: :happy2:
I really haven't heard of sea turles fighing before. Tortoises, yes, but sea turtles, no. I guess the best thing to do is to not have more than one male.
