    What's Your favorite part of breeding BPs?

    So.. what is "thee" moment for you, BP breeding-wise? What is that ultimate moment that you're just so stoked about?
    For me, it's hatching time. I just can't get over seeing those little faces peeking out; retracting back in; coming out when they're ready. Speculating on patterns.. marveling at head markings and eyes.
    You?

    I would imagine its like stepping out on a porch, with the sun shining bright and the morning dew still lingering on the tips of the trees. A gentle breeze kisses your cheek and greets you like a little puppy with the paper..........

    ....AHEM, I mean hatching time.

    I love watching babies hatch, but I also really love successful feeding trials as well. I like knowing that this new life that was brought into the world is thriving after your hard work.

    Well first it was the first successful lock, then it was the ovulations, now it's setting up the incubator, and in a few days the eggs will be my favorite part! Each part has been a favorite along the way!

    I think everything is exciting, and for me the excitement grows with each step.

    Re: What's Your favorite part of breeding BPs?

    I do not breed, but these are two things I am really looking forward to. First off, Just the eggs. I get stoked when my mice have pinks or are pregnant,and if everything gos right, I'll feel good with myself that I've been so sucessful even before the babys hatch

    Secondly, playing with the new born babys! I can hardly put lesser down, any babys I get will be the most hand tame ones you will find

    Come here little guy. You're awfully cute and fluffy but unfortunately for you, you're made of meat
