How many females are off of feed?

It's 9-February-2018 and I was wondering what percentage of your breeder females are off of feed? I have 11 out of 23 that stopped eating and just one male. The females that are still feeding I'm giving extra rats, some are eating 2-3 small to medium rats per week now until they go off of feed too. I have extra rats since I' breed my own and I'm trying to use them up before they get too big, I tend to feed them multiple smaller rats just to balance out the supply and demand. I dialed in my incubator and have all my egg boxes set up, I should start getting eggs in a few weeks!

I have 3 out of 4 females not eating, one just had her pre lay shed. The one who is still eating was a late starter, 2000g proven breeder bumblebee

At about what weight do they go off feed?

All of my females that are 1300 grams or larger are off feed except the one girl that just dropped eggs about a month ago. She is eating as well as most of my subadult females.

My 1600 gram is off after cleaning up some ex breeder Rats 3 weeks ago.
