Can anyone else confirm that the blood trails come from the male... I am 80% sure that I have witnessed these trails coming from my pastel, which is supposed to be a female. I guess its time to go invest in some probes...which I need to do anyways... but just curious about other experiences. I guess the only other issue would be is that I saw a perfect lock between the 2, and I have seen my lessers hemipenes, would 2 males lock up <question mark> haha sorry the question mark is broken on this keyboard

Yeah, I had a panic attack earlier this season when I found blood trails and drops of blood leaking from my black pastel male's vent. I was afraid he'd hurt his penes... but he seems to be fine, and he's on kept breeding.

And this week there was a small blood trail on the paper from my het to het pairing.

I could have sworn that when the female exposes her scent glands and "tail wags" when the male has entered she can leave trails... do I have this backwards? I just watched one of RDR's vid's he just posted with female tail wagging and her scent glands were really sticking out and she left a trail on her paper in the tub.

Maybe they can both leave a trail?

males will lift another males tail and make it look like a lock.
I haven't ever seen a female lock up a male or even attempt to ;)
