    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!

    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.
