I also have some Behler Burmese. 5 - 7 years old now. What do you judge big enough to breed for Burmese? 800G male? 2000G female? And do you consider age a factor as well? is a fast grown 3 yr old 2500G female too young even with that size? Any opinions on that that you would be willing to share?There are some that are very smooth, but some will have a little bumping, some more pronounced. They kind a fit in the bumping that occurs in a lot of Indians and Sri Lankans. Back right Male is the smoothest. It is a 3.2 group. I have another female who would not cooperate so wasn't included in the photo. Females are much larger than males with Burmese. I have 6 unrelated Burmese. F2 from Behler (3), Adult male from Ariz., Adult Male from Texas, F2 Female from Calif. All were juveniles when acquired. The females are big enough to lay this year. Only time will tell.
Do you know what species they have that carry it?Behler has been battling Intranuclear Coccidia over the last number of years. They try not to cross contaminate different species because of that problem. Mycoplasma pops up in Stars as well, so always screen your animals before sharing housing.
