I appreciate your input. Yes she just hit 1500 grams. She has great tone and looks very healthy. Also, the way she is pounding her food I have little doubt she is going to add a couple hundred grams before anything even happens. I have a couple other girls that will definitiely be ready to go this coming season as they are both hovering around 1200 - 1300 grams but have finally started eating again. I just thought by trying to start earlier, it may spread out the clutches so that there is more of a flow then a flood of hatchlings all at once. Of course that is only if this girl cooperates and goes for me without waitng around for the more typical season.
