Wow. Sorry about your luck. My het pieds bred at 30 months old, producing 9 eggs and hatching 4 pieds. They bred again the next season producing 8 eggs and 4 more pieds.

The original pair of pieds I held back from the first clutch gave me a nice fertile clutch of 5 pieds this year as well as the original female het which threw 13 fertile and 6 pieds.

The male pied began breeding at 18 months old and has sired clutches from pastels, pieds, het pieds, and pewters. I have never had feeding issues with any of my pieds or hets....unless they had the PASTEL gene mixed in. Every pastel I've ever owned has been a problematic feeder from about 800 grams on.

Maybe you just need a different line of pieds?
