    Breeding Larger Males?

    I allways see people breeding their small males, but my question is, can larger males (over 1300g) be bred?

    Sure they can-several of my best breeder males are WELL over that size. In fact over 2000.

    Re: Breeding Larger Males?

    I love a 1500-2000 gram breeder male. I have found that the "BIG males are lazy breeders" to be a MYTH.

    My big boys are my BEST breeders!!!!!!
