This isn't entirely true. Our experience has been that most of our females eat while on eggs. And FWIW, every one of our females that maternally incubated last season gained all of her weight back and then some before the start of this season. Also, as an interesting side note, we have a handful of girls who trick us by consistently eating while they are gravid (ie after ovulation).
