male lesser

hey i have a male lesser whos in shed will he breed while in shed or no thanks

I would wait until he sheds. It should only be a few days, and they generally prefer to be left alone when they're in shed.

ok thanks ill just let him be also at what weight does a male produce sperm plugs

Males won't usually do any breeding during any phase of shed. After he sheds out, you should be good to go ;)

oh ok thanks at what weight does a male produce sperm plugs

It varies on the snake. Some have had success as small as 350g, some at 800g. My lesser male is 450g and not producing plugs yet.

Exactly. I have a male pastel lesser that just decided to start getting with the program at 800. While I have a bee that started breeding at 425. Also, just because they are producing plugs doesn't mean they will breed...

He might, some males will and some won't. It's hard to say unless you've tried it before.
