Super male!
How many females can these guys breed? I just picked up 10 new female breeders and put them along with 3 I was waiting on and 1 male in a stock tank, I swear, that male was humping everyone of the girls atleast 1 time each. How many females can one male take on within a matter of 10 minutes? I left him in there for no more than 10 minutes and he had humped all of them. Wish me luck on a bunch of babies from these girls!!!

Re: Super male!
So you have 10 separate tanks to put them in? I wouldn't put him with more than 5 of so, or you might risk potency issues and females won't be getting pregnant.
Are these mice, rats?

Re: Super male!
Rats. I keep 3 females per tub when they give birth. I don't believe its neccesary to seperate them all into seperate tanks.

Re: Super male!
If they are first time mothers, I would separate them. Communal birthing just leads to stressed out rats, stealing of babies, babies getting injured/eaten, and one female pushing the others away and nursing 30 babies by herself. It's just not healthy.

Re: Super male!
The females share their duty in the colony. Since I started doing 3 females per tub, I have had an almost 100% success rate with babies growing up til fed off or weaned.
I am breeding them for food, not pets. Lets not let what you believe they should be housed like get in the way here.

Re: Super male!
Hun... This is not just what "I" believe. MANY people on this forum do the same thing I mentioned with their rat colonies and are highly successful. You do what you want, no one is going to stop you.
Good luck with that!

Re: Super male!
Its just you were making it sound like I would need 10 seperate tanks for my breeders, I was simply stating that there is more than 1 correct way to do it

Re: Super male!
I read the topic title "super male" and was going to say that I did not think male was a co-dominate trait.
