I have some females that will be second timers (meaning, they laid eggs and hatched successfully last year and this year will be their second time), and some females that will be their third year. For my females that will be in their third year this coming season, the number of eggs they laid in the 1st season is same number (plus or minus one egg) as compared to the second season...so my question is, should i expect same number of eggs for each female based on past performance?
Would increasing the body weight before mating increase the chances of having more fertile eggs laid? Of course, it also depends on the male...I guess this subject is just up for discussion...
thanks...
