A couple more breeding question

[Matt1851]

Ok so im just wondering here. From all of your own personal experiences, out of Veileds vs. Panthers

1. Witch local had a higher hatch rate?
2. Witch local Laid more eggs?
3. If I were to choose one over the other do they both have the same incubation temperatures?
4. Im willing to breed either my Veiled or my Nosy Be. What would you recomend and why?

Thanks for anyone who responds

Nosy Be $$$ flat out.
It's hard to break even breeding Veileds.
And I'm even saying that as more direct competition for myself

Im told that veileds have a higher hatch rate, lower early mortality rate. but personally I've had very good success with panthers.

Veileds can lay more eggs, though really the female would be better off if you kept the number of eggs low.

essentially the same incubation

whatever you are more likely to find homes for easily.

This tells you how to help prevent her from laying a clutch at all. Even if she does lay, it will help reduce the number of eggs she has.

ya i read brads blog thinking thats how to stop it completely, i guess if you raise the temps just a tad more and feed her just a tad more the egg count wont be so high?
