Hi Everyone! And the past I used to keep Continental Harlequin magpies. I love them so much and had a great line but I took 5 months off and I had a chance to get D'argent, which are extremely rare that stumbled upon in mind of the woods I've been wanting to sleep for over 10 years! Well I finally procured a buck and a Doe, unrelated of course that come from pretty good lines nothing to show but for pleasure and for meat. I'm guessing they are around 4 months old I was told they were around that age and some research and pictures I seen and their weight I'm guessing they're right. They do look like they have finished silvering but they're about 6 lbs each more or less the female slightly smaller than the buck at this point starting to develop a tiny Dewlap. I just need some information from people who've had this breed before. When is a good time to breed how many months? Also what are expected litter sizes or is it like usual.. luck of the draw. I had silver fox in past. Also do they do well in cold weather as I am in Connecticut they do have plenty of second cup hay and shings under. Hutches used to be for Continentals so they're nice and roomy 3 ft wide 5 ft long with a bedroom compartment for nesting in the back all closed in and then a part that's open on two sides in the front and the fencing at the bottom from the front side. I do have a picture of the female I will upload a picture of the buck later!. That is the female. Also I feed Show hutch 17 buy Blue seal / Kent.; and they get kale other goodies. Anything I need to onow from the pros?
Thanks
