Opinions on this feeding

Do you try to breed larger males with the larger females? or does that not matter?

I selectively breed for the best possible appearance that I can achieve in my offspring ... I spend an incredible amount of time finding the right boy for the right girl ... size of the male and female never play into it for me ... as long as they are ready and healthy, it doesn't matter ... but then again, I don't go trying to breed 300 gram males ... when my animals are put into a breeding program, they are more than capable of handling the animal(s) I pair them with.

The male in that picture is over 850 grams I think? ... Closer to 1000? ... just for perspective.

It's just one small small a week, right Adam?

In the last couple months I've moved to the Wysocki feeding method (feeding just a small rat once a week) myself. I see much more consistent feeding. My temperatures are spot on and nobody goes on long fasting sessions anymore.

It's going to work very well for you ... wait til you see how it goes for a full year ... It took some convincing when I was first told about feeding small (I used to feed my big girls jumbos, 2 at a time and they'd fast 1/2 the year) but after 4 or 5 years, I'm a believer.

Anytime you'd like to take a trip and see how I roll, you're welcome ... I guarantee I've got some of the biggest balls you've ever seen ... I promise you it's enough.

The big girl in this picture gets nothing larger than a "small small" rat, ever ... and the rest of the girls that big and some even bigger are the same ... ask anyone on here that's been to my shop, I've got big healthy balls.

ummmm....should I even tackle these comments?? Once we work out the details of trading my wife for some cool morphs, as currently being discussed in the off-topic cafe, she will be happy to verify the claim of having the "biggest balls you've ever seen" upon her arrival.

They're usually the second thing that the hotties (and Jamie) notice when they meet me.
