    cooling off if your not breeding?

    I am just wondering if a guy should still cool (shorten light cycle) and stop feeding my babies this winter if they are not going to be breeding until next winter or should i just continue to keep them growing thins winter so they are a bit bigger for their first breeding season.


    thanks

    Feed, feed, and more feed

    Even breeders get fed, till they flat out refuse

    Just keep them warm and feeding, no need to cool if you're not breeding.
