Okay, I was talking to a couple of my friends today. Everyone has experienced a late season this year so I had some questions to ask. What are everyone's opinions on why we had such a late go? Do you think it was the more mild than usual winter or something else? Do you think that light cycles, moon cycles, and atmospheric pressure has a part in breeding cycles? I had a few females go early but most of my girls are just now in various stages...i.e building, ovulating, prelay sheds, and laying.
I think that it is critical to have a colder winter to help in the breeding cycle. I think temperatures play a part but that drop of pressure and the winter storms gets the males and females into the mood.
Let me know what you think...
