    Egg to Weight ratio?

    This is out of curiosity for those with experience breeding different sized females. I am breeding 2 different females this year and was wondering what the general amount of eggs to expect from females of different weight. For those breeding many females around the same weight... do you find the number of eggs to be fairly consistant? my biggest female is a bit over 1700 grams... also her first season. I understand each female is different... but what have been your results?

    Re: Egg to Weight ratio?

    I've heard people throw around the ol' 1 egg to every 300grams ratio but who knows..Of course not to mean a 300grammer will be good for one egg. More or less 1500=5, 1800=6, 2100=7 but then again this is all just hearsay. I hear it so I say..

    ok Jas that ratio sucks sorry bro..i know you said these were your personal odds but can you tell me about the girl that laid 2 eggs in this weight range?

    reason im asking is because i have an 05 female that is at 2700 grams and just ovulated. i just want to see if your girl was younger or older and the weight.. just got me scurrrrred LOL


    if you cant afford to take care of it, dont get it
