BHP Pre-Breeding Conditioning

This is a shot of one of our favorite female adult Blackheads... "Olivia". After breeding for us and producing 4.4 AWESOME baby Blackheads this past June, its time to feed her up in preparation for the 2006-2007 breeding season. We breed our females two years in a row and give them a year off before breeding them again. Next season will be Olivia's second year in the breeding sequence. The year off gives them a chance to regain lost body mass and prolongs their lifespan. She is about one rat away from being back to optimal breeding weight. Its all about the animals! The 2006-2007 breeding year should be one of our best! Keep your fingers crossed, stay tuned and many thanks to all of our GREAT customers for their continued loyalty!

Tom,
thanks for the kudos. Your OUTRAGEOUS AXANTHIC Blackheads stole the show in Daytona. Keep up the good work, its just the tip of the iceberg in Blackhead genetics! The future in Blackheads is brighter than most people know!

Jim
