I usually do this. But my mojave girl wasn't showing any interest until I paired them with her hide in the tub. Then she locked right up, but in the hide of course. I guess she just wanted more privacy.

That's what I do as well - no hides in the female's tubs during breeding season. Those that are usually shy will just get under the paper and make their own hides.

i have a similar question. Both my big girl and spider male have the same type of hide. All my snaked have hides. When i start to put the male in the female's tub should i remove the females hides?

I do.

Thanks for the Replies guys, I'll keep you updated on my progress.
Upcoming Sunday is Snakeday in the Netherlands and I'll be adding animals to my collection.

Including a pair of 100% het pieds and a Spider DH Ghost and Axantic :D

Greets,

I usually remove hides when pairing my snakes. I find the hides just give them a reason to avaiod each other.

I have a male Black Pastel that thrashes around and acts like a tough guy when introduced to the females then overnight he usually locks them up. Just boys being boys;)

Your young spider will get the idea after a few visits. I find the real young males dont lock for very long and I usually never catch them in the act but know they locked because I get eggs.:gj:

Wow, those should be some exciting additions! :gj: I loved the Netherlands when I visited, btw... spent just a week there (Amsterdam & countryside on the way to Belgium), but I've been wanting to go back ever since. Beautiful place with some awfully friendly people. :)

When you put the males back to their cages (still during breeding season), do they still have hides?

ja dan doe je toch iets niet goed????:D
