Breeding Question

If I have a 2365 Gram Normal Female and a 523 Gram Pinstripe Male that i want to breed. Should I try to get the pinstripe fatter or start putting them together now and see if they lock up. The friend i bought them from says the Pinstripe male is a proven breeder!

All constructive criticism is welcomed!:cool:

give it a shot he'll ether go or he wont

Was the animal quarantine for 3 months?

Does he produce sperm plug?

Can you pair him? Absolutely just remember that breeding takes it's toll on males so know when to stop should you have to. :gj:

Is he producing sperm plugs? If so put them together :gj:

Thanks for all the advice!

Since this is my first time breeding how do i know when to pull the male! I heard leaving the male and female together for 3-5 days! Should i feed them first then put them together or does it matter?

What I meant is to make sure you monitor your male, they often stop eating and can lose a significant amount of weight during the season and you do not want to over-breed him, should he lose too much weight you might need to stop breeding him all together.

As far a pairing itself everyone does it a bit differently and again it depend on the male's size, I would pair a male that size once a week leaving him with the female for 2 to 3 days and than rest him.

This is why i was thinking on trying to put some more weight on the male before I try to breed him. Which is really confusing

I was under the impression that the "sperm plug" was just a stuck hemipenal cast which failed to shed and had pretty much nothing to do with "sperm"?

Weighed before i went to work! 617 Grams:gj::gj::gj:
