    Dud Males...

    So I have a BP i am breeding feeders for and I had a breeder male who ws doing good but i opted to keep a younger one as a replacement and now i am getting no where in my breedings the male i kept is about 2 months old and i have placed him with half a dozen different girls in different cages. I am at a loss as to what to do. I just went out and bought another male from the store to try.

    Does or has anyone else had this trouble? Or is there anyone in the Maryland area that has a breeder buck they can part with?

    @Sammy Thanks

    So what is the best age for a buck to start breeding? Should I remove him from the program for now and then put him back in later?

    If he is the oldest male that you have then I would just leave him in with the females. As soon as he gets stronger than they are you will have babies coming out your ears LOL.
