Coppulation

You will know when they're not playing.
Mating is very quick. The male mounts the female only for a few seconds then stops. He licks his shaft to clean and lube it up, then mounts the female again for another few seconds, then gets off. This process is repeated through the night the female is in heat. The females go into heat every 4-5 days.
It looks nothing like playing. A female in heat will hop around enticing the male as well. When she is receptive, she will wiggle her ears and arch her back to allow the male to mount her.

Overall, you probably wouldn't witness them breeding anyway. Peek breeding time is around twilight and throughout the night.

Well evidently they were breeding cause three of the females are about to POP and their nipples are very pronounced. Should I move them to a seperate tub all together or seperate tubs or leave them with the males? Right now they are 1.2 in each tub.

Also should I put the males together in one tub so they don't get lonely?

i have all my females together. the male together should be fine as long as they dont fight. just keep an eye on them at first.
