    tail rising
    Just thought i would ask. I got this male pastel a while back. I popped him, male. saw sperm and some mean ol' red hemipenes. So cool i got a male.
    i was going to pair him up this season, sexed him again to double check, cool same thing. sperm and red ol'hemipenes. sex the girl once again, girl. had a clutch before but i still checked. so every time he is paired or attempted. he raising his tail whenever it is touched ever so little. like he is the ready for smex to be given to him. don't know what to do here since he is not mounting any females i give him too. i don't think he is a female. though my male mojave locked with him when cleaning....sigh

    short question: do males usually raise their tail the entire time when breeding. ahah

    yeah, look closly and youll see him peeing a little. scenting up the joint.

    be patient,
    whats his weight?
    my little butter did the same but he was too small to breed so i seperated him.

    just never seen any of my males do this before. ever ahah. my guys usual just crawl all over the girl no tail in the air no peeing no nothing.
    his weight around 800 grams. he could put on more weight easy, he is not over weight in the least and about 2 yo.

    they were together for no more then like 5 min, no joke. i am just hoping my mojave is a horn dog and my pastel is a submissive guy who likes to court the ladies first.
