all 3 sets of joeys were boys... is there a diet reason?

[hday]

Hi all

random musing...

as you know the plan never was to breed from phil and lil and he managed to escape the snip once at the vets!
and then do the dirty just before he was snipped....

but just wondering

all of hers have been boys

so twin boys, single, then twins again....


why - are they more common, genetically in most specis they arent!

or could it be diet?

or something to do with their background?


just intrigued!
also despite being snipped he was still interested in her last night... presumably the hormaones are still there!

Neutered males are known to still have desires, they just cannot impregnate.

There's no dietary secret as far as I'm aware.  All mine have always been fed the same because I blend and in the past (I don't breed anymore) there have been a range and there has been a range of sexes.  I guess like humans it's genetic as in some women are more likely to have boys than girls and vice versa.

Mark,as you know if you were just a bit nearer to york we would have given your little girl a very good home for the rest of her life.im sure she will get a very good home soon,i will keep my fingers crossed.

hmm ok thanks so just one of those things to have all boys and no girls!!!
vet must love me keeping him in business with the castrations!

re little girl.... likewise would love.... but currently trying to downsize now at 7 not increase
and as I said .... may even be she and my twins could go together if some one was prepared to see if they would all bond always  a gamble!
