Good stuff guys.

Just to clarify I am talking about dead/unfertilized little rock eggs not eggs that dont make it through the incubator.

During a season, what you consider keeping a male in with a female long enough? My breeding female to male ratio is roughly 1 male 3 females (more or less depending on what Im going for), I kept each male in with a female for a week or two then rotated the male. So off the top of my head I would say a total of 1.5weeks per month per female.

Another things that might be worth considering is my first cluth was in late march and had no slugs, and all 6 of my others have come within the last week. (busy week), so counting backwards does that mean they were all impregnated around Feb/March?

Im also using 4" flex watt, belly heat. Temps set to 91, hot spot measures around 88-91 almost year around.

Tub sizes are the 40gallon ones.
