    Tail Wagging

    I've got a 1700 gram normal female I'm hoping will breed this year. When I place a male with her, she wags her tail like crazy. Some people say it's a good thing, and some say it's bad. What are your opinons on tail wagging? Thanks.

    I believe she is 'scenting'. you should see a lock soon.

    Re: Tail Wagging

    I have a 0.1 lesser who got old/large enough to start pairing earlier this year. I put her boyfriend in the tub for the first time and about 10 minutes afterward I hear thump - thump - thump... I check on them thinking OMG they're fighting, and she's wagging her tail like a happy puppy! Three hours later they were locked up tight. So yes, definitely a good sign.
