Jay,

How much of an impact do you feel the odd weather has had on this seasons breeding?

Here in the N. East, it was in 50's until mid-January, then it only got winter cold for a little while. Since March we have had mild spring like weather, with only a couple really hot days. It seems like the winter and summer seasons have been muted?

I have a small collection, however, I notice that this year has been off too?

In addition to a couple girls that didnt even ovulate this past season, I have a couple of my big breeder females that regularly stop eating around November, but have always gone back to feed by March-April, that are still not eating. I also have a couple other girls I was hoping to get to 1400-1500 grams by this fall that are refusing food or have just started to eat.

It is already almost mid-July and my 07/08 breeding plans are being affected.

Maybe I am over analyzing things and nothing is going on...I am not sure?

~Alan
