I have a couple females that will never get to the accepted 1500g. One is an 03 at 1200g and one is an 04 at 1100g. The 03 layed 4 good eggs last season and the 04 will be bred this season. I think my older females have a much better shot at producing good eggs than 06 animals that were fed heavily to get over the 1500g mark. Once the females get over 3 years old than I would agree that weight is more important. I was actually trying to say that I think smaller older females have a better success rate than young 18 month old females that are over 1500g.Quote:
