Thank you to everyone that posted! Not my thread I know, but I'm in the same situation - my largest female is a little over 1400g, and I think she might be ready by next breeding season. Since we are on the topic of BP breeding questions for first timers... If you have a female (or male for that matter) that is approaching breeding weight, do they typically go on feeding strikes that tells you they want to breed? If so, then around when does it happen, and for how long?
My female has been hunger striking for several months now, but not losing much weight. Actually my 900g male has been hunger striking also. Troy, are you seeing this in any of the potential breeders you are raising?
