Superfecundation

[Jacques O'Dell]

In the true sense of the word, has anyone ever heard of, or know of superfecundation in bearded dragons? It makes perfectly sense that this phenomenon should exist in them, i just can't find any scientific data on it. thanks
(with true superfecundation I mean a female being mated with several males, laying a single clutch of eggs, and producing eggs and babies of which they are from the different males. the other use of superfecundation is when a female lays eggs several years after being mated, this is the wrong use of the word superfecundation.)

I have read on some forums of this taking place but have never witnessed it myself. I do not see why this could not happen considering that the female can retain sperm and be bred while the sperm is in retention. The only true way of testing this would be taking two males with different co-dominant genes and putting them with the same female... the only gene that I know of like that is the Leatherback gene. Colors are too hard to do this with because the captive population of dragons is so mixed right now there is no way to tell unless you have a dragon in which it's lineage is tracked to the "T".
