I have never encountered males growing faster than females. I think this myth grew from the fact that males mature faster than females in the long run. This does not mean they grow faster just that they will mature at a younger age. If you have encountered this for real and not just going off of myth please chime in as I would like to know what species this is specific too. As far as I have witnessed with MANY species is they all grow at an equal pace and the males just mature out before the females are full grown.
Same type of myth is that females are fatter than the males. Funny thing is about this one is it kinda of counterdicts the last one. This is sometimes true with full adults but when it comes to slings, once again its a myth based on adults.
The funniest part of this is I have seen many long term hobbyist and even dealers that believe this myth....it holds true for real life though when it comes to myths
I have learned some myths about child rearing this year and find it funny some of the things we all hold to heart when it comes to life. We really should do our research before just believing a rumour or even what we were told through life by others.
Couple of fun ones most parents worry about(as did I )....how many kids really die on plastic bags? Drown in buckets? You will be suprised that they are more likely to be hit by a car, drown in your pool, be hit by lightning or far more!
