I have to disagree. 1 male will suffice, no combatting required.
I know plenty of keepers who use a single male & produce every season.
There is plenty of recorded information around also to verify breedings with single males. Many years ago it was believed to be impossible without the aid of excess males, but I would like to believe that we have come along way since then.

Have you bred BHP yourself Ad?
or are you quoting & passing on "OLD HABIT" advice that you have heard or read ?
