That's a lot of girls! Do you have some special incubation secrets you want to let us in on?

Nice. Do you incubate at a lower temp?

Maybe next year you'll get mostly boys? [ odds evening out lol ]

Congrats! Don't think you can ever have too many females hatch out. :) ~

At 14.23 here this year incubating @ 88.5
Not that incubation temps affect sex ratios

I have no problem with little girls unless your trying really hard for a new combo male and the odds just are not playing in your favor.

For giggles I checked my normals and I'm 4.9 with them. It will probably average out by the end of the season....

High numbers of females isn't usually a problem...

It should eventually even out. If not in one season, then over several.

Way high on females this year too. It's been a long time coming.

Last year was dubbed "Sausage Fest 2011". It looked like this over at the sink where I rinse 'em off and pop 'em...

i am at 14.12 so i am male high... but not by much! i got males when i wanted females and females when i wanted males go figure

i added up everyone to dates totals 185.215 so out of the people who posted i guess this was a better yr for females.... just not at my place

i am sure the only people responding to this... are people crying or bragging so i would not read to much into this

Isn't the sex determined the moment the egg is fertilized ??

It all evens out in the end, we have been keeping clutch records since 2008 and since then our totals have been 312.319. Im sure if we had kept track before that it would be pretty close to being even. It's crazy how it all evens out. :yes:
