and part of it stated, "Female flyers often breed within a few months of their own birth and prior to their first birthday." This was talking about wild flyers. It seems to be pretty common. I wonder if our captive flyers breed later than in the wild because there is a constant source of food available, no preditors and thus no rush to reproduce. What has been your experience?
