Agree.. lately, It seems like there’s more males than females early on.. but then the females seem to show up and even things out.. not sure what’s going on there..
Good luck

Same here in SWLA. Males outnumber females 2:1 or 3:1. I Imagine the fighting is going to be strong unless/until some more ladies show up!
