    I never did cool my breeders and will not in the future.I did produce eggs also.In my opinion its a waste of time.

    Re: Cool or dont cool?

    I do not cool. The ambient temperature drops naturally in the cooler months anyway so I just let nature provide my "cooling" though it is usually just a degree or two and because I have a lot of windows in the room, the amount of daylight is naturally shorter. I simply start pairing in early Fall. No other preparations needed.
