You could have missed a quick lock, but a good lock normally lasts for hours...If not days. My Mojo pair normally stay locked for 24+ hours. Kinda hard to miss that. :D

I would just pair them again and keep a close eye on them.

Mine lock for atleast 12 hours and sometimes up to 30 hours...

I cought my pair locked for 13 hours yesterday and they took a 2-3 hour break and have been locked again for 8 hours since... lol

haha that's more along the lines of what I was thinking. well I'm going to keep them separated until next meal then pair them up again and hope she's in the mood ;)

Well he does know what he's doing, but BG would check again right now. Even the best of us can make a mistake.:gj:

Put them together and watch them for a while to see what happens.

ok I'm going to check again once I get home just for piece of mind :)

My 07 chocolate was sexed female by a breeder with decades of experience. I'm only good at popping hatchlings so I just took that sexing as gospel. Should have been suspicious when it never could seem to put the weight on to reach female breeding size but it wasn't until I tried to breed to my male mojave and all heck broke loose that I finally figured my chocolate thinks he’s male. Turns out he is a great breeder too as with only one short last minute run through several females he fathered at least most if not all the babies.

well I'm feeling pretty confident in the sexes of both so I will post lock up pics if I get any next week when pair two goes down

just wanted to let everyone who offered me their help that I awoke this morning to my first lock ever and boy was it great. will post pics after work tomorrow! thanks again everyone! my plan is to just pair the two every couple weeks and give them three days for copulation and hope for more locks until ovulation! I'm so excited.

Make sure you get an incubator ready.:)

Nothing worse than having eggs show up without an incubator ready!!!:P
