I know, Pajarita, though what you are speaking of. I had a Friend who bred very expensive cats.
In his Cattery, which was in his basement, he would keep the "Lights On" constantly to force the females to go into heat. I thought it odd, but I think it has something to do with what you are
speaking about regarding Light cycles and bird breeding.
If he is setting up the birds for breeding in November, the birds are been forced into an off-season breeding season because no bird breeds during the winter.
