hey, im going to buy a lexandrine male that has bred before and is about 3 years old. i was wondering if i could pair him with a 2 year old alexandrine?
or is 2 years too young for a female to breed?
thanks

Alexandrines, like IRN's can breed from 2yrs on easily enough (can never put a guarantee on breeding age though, its just a good average estimate).

I have heard of IRN's and Alex's hens breeding from 1yo and males from 2, but seems almost completely common for 2yrs+ that they breed successfully.
