Also, regarding egg bound females: I've only had it happen twice and both females were "soft" rather then small. I can't explain why they seemed fat or soft as they were raised the same as my others, they just didn't have that solid muscular feel like we all know Big Gunns does.

Yep....they can gain a whole lot of weight while breeding if you feed them....and you should.

Those females must have had Leeetle Minion blood in them Dave.

OK...that's enough with the "Leeetle Minion". BG just misses his buddies. They gave Big Gunns life.


ps. BG fixed your post also Dave.
