    the general rule is 1 lock per female each month or even 1 lock per female each shed .. put the male in as often as it needs for him to lock with the girl .. as others stated above we also put the male with the female for 3 days and then give him a 3 day break

    I know quite a few people do 3 in - 3 out, but I will probably stick to a weekly schedule ike Mike said, only because I wor two jobs

    How long do you guys keep the pairings up if you see no locks, no ovulation? When is it time to call it a year and try again the next season?

    We breed year round, so they continue to get paired until we witness an OVY. We have never had to pair for longer than 4-5mos. It always seems to happen ;)

    Hi all.

    Using the 3 on 3 off rule, how long do you do this for? 1 month, 2, 3 months?
