Hey everyone,

Just doing some research regarding bloodline & breeders. So as I notice the habits of "big breeders". I question the habits of true hobbyist or novelist. When do you begin cooling down your animals ? While we don't have the ability of always having several racks, rooms, and facilities. I have heard of some people just introducing animals with no cool down phase. I ponder the following;

1. Do you begin cool down/cycle temps from birth ?
2. When do you begin to cool down newly acquired animals ?


(Please respond according to your own best practices).
 
I don't cool down for breeding.

All new critters are quarantined / kept in isolation under a different roof/HVAC for 90 days before being brought into my house.
 
I don't cool them. I breed year round. The female will breed when she's ready, not based on some imaginary calendar that she can't read anyway...
