I am a big breeder guy for the the most part. Give me one that is 1200-1500. You don't have to watch them as closely with regards to eating and rest. My best breeder is a 1500 gram 05 that is covering 10-12 females this season -- could do more. He is beefy and eats every week. He is pretty much insane!!!
That being said, I am trying to get a numcet of smaller/younger 500-800 males to breed. I have been trying some things based on what some others have reported they do. This is my first year breeding and I am willing to mix it up based on the insights of others who CLEARLY have more experience than I. Smaller females, moving after 24 hours of no interest are both things I am trying. I am also experimenting with having at least one female in their rotation having already been bred at least twice by another male. This way I know at least the female has been receptive to breeding. I have never seen any kind of aggression by a female torward a male -- occasional hissing. Bill
