Discussion
- Males are assume to differ from females by {p_Am} only
- The yolk energy content in tEY data had to be multiplied by a factor 5 to match data
- mod_1: tp and tW data added; flegde at hatch
Facts
- Male maintains leaf mound in which eggs hatch. Hatchlings loose mass just after hatching. It takes them 40 h to reach the mound surface, 40 till 150 cm above, and rest for 21 h. No parental care after hatching, so they are superprecocial (Ref: PridWhee2001)
