Actually they are incredibly predictable in nature.

Even in captivity they are predictable as can be. Once supported, they are like clockwork. An example, when I produced lots of Blairs, most females cycled the same week, even the same day, year after year, after year. And it did not matter if I hibernated them or not. As long as they were healthy.

I have been watching gilas and one pair has returned to the exact same spot, to the inch, for 35 years and going. Is that not predictable? So I guess how you think of them varies with your own experience. Best wishes
