an interesting question. I won't claim experience I don't have either but my main thought about having offspring to unload say durring the winter rather than the spring/summer may pose some problems for breeders who rely heavily on non-local or show sales. There's an obvious risk of shipping in cold weather and I would like to think that breeders just plain wouldn't do it. Of course there are those states that don't have much of a winter...unfortunately here in MI winter we never know what we are going to get or for how long!
