Hi!
I am trying to do a glmer.nb but get this error:
Error in eval(expr, envir, enclos) :
  ..2 used in an incorrect context, no ... to look in

My data structure is data.frame
Here my data set: d1_2

Year ID Age Reproductive_status Rank_Residuals Asso.Y1 TotalY1
1994 109 8 Lactating 0.23947902 9 48
1994 110 6 Barren -0.030977951 56 62
1995 1000 9 Summer_yeld 0.08624 31 55
1995 103 4 Barren -0.06861 29 52
1996 23 8 Barren -0.015726749 64 64
1997 1000 11 Lactating 0.148665859 5 35
1997 103 6 Barren -0.116539886 51 51
2001 105 9 Lactating -0.036222842 27 28
2001 106 9 Barren 0.073777158 40 40
2001 116 8 Barren -0.015710059 5 31


library(lme4); library(MASS)
nb.glmer <- glmer.nb(Asso.Y1 ~ Reproductive_status * Age +
Reproductive_status * Rank_Residuals + Reproductive_status * I(Age^2) +
(1|ID) + (1|Year), offset = log(d1_2$TotalY1), data=d1_2)

I have also tried because I found that glmer.nb is not well understood:
library(glmmADMB)
    random <- MCMCglmm(cbind(Asso.Y1,TotalY1-Asso.Y1) ~ Reproductive_status
* Age + Reproductive_status * Rank_Residuals + Reproductive_status *
I(Age^2), random = ~ ID+Year, data = d1_2)
BUT: Error in MCMCglmm(cbind(Asso.Y1, TotalY1 - Asso.Y1) ~
Reproductive_status *  :
  family must have the same length as the number of responses

I am not able to solve those problems and I have looked on forums too.

Tkx in advance!
