For experienced breeders: How many females do you pair to a male project?
Let’s say you have a double recessive male and you are pairing him up to females for a “project”, how many females do you pair him with? Do you have a “backup” male for that project, in case he doesn’t seduce some of the girls? Do you have extra girls, since they might only breed every other year?
My current thinking is to have 1 primary male, I backup male and 6 female per project, but I want to be as efficient as possible without killing my males.
What do you number in your projects?
