Maybe someone can help me out? Almost everyone that has responded to my questions have a list of there animals. And all have decimals before the pets breed or name.
Example-0.1 bearded dragon 1.0 dogs 0.3 Iguana I know I might sound dumb but...what do these decimals mean?

first # is the number of males, end # is females, third is unknown sex.
For example, 2.3.1 leopard geckos means 2 males,3 female and 1 which they can't figure out the sex yet.

If you know 1.2 leopard geckos has to do with male and female, but can't remember which is which, take a hint from a married guy that will help you remember.
Anyone who's been married will tell you that the female is always RIGHT, just like in the decimal system, male is the number on the left and female is the number on the right. So 1.2 leopard geckos means 1 male and two females. Hope that helps.
