 Worthless, fat, and old, lol!

Is it common for a male to only be a good breeder for a couple of years? Some of my boys are getting on up there in age...okay, not that old...around 4, but still...they have become WORTHLESS BREEDERS, lol! All they want to do is sit around getting fat. I’m so frustrated! Almost all of my females have been studded to only one of my males (a strapping teenager...he is less than a year old). He’s a pretty boy...but I sure was hoping for more diversity this year! Is it commont to have to retire your males after a couple of years, or do I just have especially lazy boys?

I have an 8 year old male that still bangs away. Keep them fit and lean, not fat and cute.

My oldest male was born in March 2000 and my friend gave him to me 2 years later. I’ve had him ever since. I let him mount a girl (for fun) last week, but I don’t incubate these eggs anymore (monitor food):
