I am curious. Some people tend to breed later (and I agree with the idea that they are more mature and able to handle things) but some people manage to get Commercial kits to breed at five months old. That could really save some money (and make it, in fryers) if the does consistantly delivered live litters that did well at that age, I mean, that's a whole three months saved.
My does (who are unrelated) all seem to have waited till they were older to breed, I know as I keep in contact with those folks that got my herd. eight and nine months, so far.
So what is it? Is it breeding (I tend to not think so, since mine were ostly unrelated) is it the feed? What is going on that there are such different outcomes within a few breeds?
