I started really late this year and wasn't going to breed these two. They've been cooling since March 13th how much longer should I wait. I know I should really wait until mid may but it's killing me... bc i still have so much longer before babies : )

female is lavender corn het opal & snow
male is lavender king (unknown genetics)
male blizzard king not bromated

I don’t know if the male lavender king is het amel and I really want some amel babies. The blizzard king that I didn't plan on breeding hasn't been cooled but is looking for some action. He was being a picky eater all winter I thought about cooling him but he hadn't bulked up, plus my corn is a big lady and he's a little man, he’s breedable but maybe not to a female her size. Do you think I should introduce him to her? I figure I can't hurt much, unless he tries to eat her (but i'm pretty sure he can't anyway, but might die trying).

so opinions on additional brumation time and introduction of the males. I plan on the lavender king being first, then the blizzard (I want to introduce the males 2x each if both try to breed)

aaargh, Hybrids.
There's a forum for hybrids (we're real snotty here) but I'd guess they could be bred with the size difference and duration of brumation. Rule of thumb is 3 months for brumation and size is more important when the hungry maniacal female is a bit larger (even the same size) than the male.
I'd try it and good luck....Jeff
