Feeding during the cooling and courtship period....more

Philip Niforatos Oct 28, 2003 08:07 PM

What is everyone's insight on this subject?? When things begin to slow down, is it wise to separate and feed something small to both male and female? I've noticed a significant drop in activity in all of my breeding groups for the past week or so, and thought maybe a small meal would get the juices flowing again...or not?

Thanks,
Philip Niforatos

I breed in all 1.2 groups where the female each have their own cage and the male is switched from cage to cage. Unless a female refuses to eat Ill feed her normally till she ovulates and smaller meals there after. I switch the male weekly from female to female and feed which ever female is by herself.
Hope this helps
