I run all gyps. I have two males on my yard and its two too many but oh well. I don't have to deal with the pissin matches and fighting all the time. Sure they come in heat but I just leave that one at home and run one that isn't.

I run all females.  I am considering adding a male after this next breeding.  I think its alot less hassle in the kennels and yard, but they do get moody and want to fight some when they are in.  Also like rdjustham said, when they are in heat running them around males can be a problem.

Dont get me wrong.  With the exeption of a few ive had, i prefer females.  Its just a pain when guys you hunt with run all males, and like women they are all usually in around the same time.  For that reason alone i like a split pack.

This is funny to me I have more problems with females fighting than I do males. Guy the other night couldent believe I left my 2 dogs right next to each other with no fights. I am head of my pack and they know it. Fe.ales are a pain in the rear for me but have several.  Heck think my females pee more thany males do or maybe I kust dont pay attention.

I'd think something was wrong with my Cur dogs if I didn't have to slap upside there head or holler at em for growling or getting into with another dog.

I run all females on my bay dogs , I have four and rotate them hunting most of the time , I tried a male that was line bred from the same blood line but all he had on his mind was the girls ,  I gave him away at 2  , I ran beagles years ago and liked the females and now still have females , I have two male cds
And they are usually on a lead ,I personally think that a female isn't as hard headed and learns faster and not to bash males because there is just as good males as females just a mans preference , my last pup is now three ,bmc female  , I told her that this was the year for the team or the cut , I guess she was listening because she's been really hunting good and I guess a little slow to mature from what I read on the web but sure glad I stuck it out with her

see the reason i am gettin a all female pack is because most ppl i hunt with has nearly all females

Jus showing a pecking order.. Every pack animal on earth does it and once they figure out the pecking order, most of the time there is a lot of less fighting. I have the sweetest cd u could ever find but the other day my brothers ybmc thought he was gunna jump on him in the dog box (I guess to try and show him up) but it didn't work out in his favor at all. By the time I stopped the truck and opened the dog box door my brothers dogs head was inside my APBTs mouth. My cd was jus holding him down with his front legs and holding the other dogs head down with his mouth lol. I quickly called him off with a firm voice and he slowly came to me while watching his back. (Love a catch dog that will listen even when he wants to do the exact opposite). Tempers will flare in any breed and any sex. Lots of variables that play in a pack. They get in arguement a jus like us. Good luck with the all female pack bud!

My used to have beagles. He ran an all female pack because he said that while the male dogs were trying to see who could pee the highest the females were finding rabbits.

I have had some good females with as much grit as the males...but I prefer males because they are usually stronger and can control a hog better...but I can not stand a male that is always worrying about pecking order when he should be out hunting...and a male humping another male makes me see red...  Grin I don't interfer with other folks dogs but mine will get there butt kicked for acting that way...a good hunting dog should only have hunting on his mind in the woods...and minding his own business around the truck or wheeler...but a female in heat...I excuse his bahavior...  Wink folks should know better not to take females in heat to the woods where males will be around...

Training dogs is not about quantity, it's more about timing, the right situations, and proper guidance...After that it's up to the dog...
