3 down 1 to go...I bred 4 females this year and so this is the 3rd girl to lay, and I've got another in a pre-lay shed right now. Not too bad...here are the pics:

Effin countdown begins again....these will be due just a few days before I leave for Daytona...

Dad is a pastel...hopefully I get some good odds on all of these! I've got 21 eggs in the incubator right now! First clutch is due in 2 weeks.
 
8 thats a better number than last time! Was she the very large girl? Well done, its great news!
 
how long have you been breeding. most of the customers i've talked to say if you try to breed, it wont happen. most of the people i know who have breed, did it not trying
 
This is my first season. I've been extremely fortunate to make friends with a professional breeder who has showed me, hands on, exactly what to do to get these guys to breed. You can read on the internet and in books all you want but its just different when someone takes you under their wing and shows you what to do from start to finish.
 
Want to share any hints and tips to the public? A lot of time, the females know when they are ready.
