Discussion
- Males are assumed to differ from females by {p_Am} only
- Although the temperature switched between 2 levels that differ 2 C, the analysis treats temperature as constant
- This unique entry has measured food intake for each individual; it turned out that they differ in digention efficiency
- Some weight data is missing, which is indicated by NaN
- The over-estimation of age-at-birth strongly suggests that eggs already start to develop in the mother before laying; the related Boidae are fully ovo-viviparous
Facts
- Torpor is necessary for reproduction (Ref: Laar2010)
