Is this what I think it is?

I put my pastel in with one of my girls just to see if it would happen, I checked back in an hour and this is what I see. Is this a lock?

Looks like it! :)

Yessireebob! :D

Awesome. Im excited.

BINGO!

Congratulations!

Hehe thanks. What are the odds that this lock is all it'll take? I really wasnt intending to breed yet, this was just kind of a test to see if my pastel will be a stud or a dud lol. I plan on putting him back in his enclosure on Friday and not cycling him or testing anymore till next season.

I think it was Dan Sutherland that mentioned on Reptile Radio that there's been plenty of times that he got a clutch from pairing a female up once for the season.

you never can tell if it takes till it happens, so guess you will just have to wait and see. is your girl up to weight?

Last year I had 3 for 3 girls all ovulate and drop a healthy clutch of eggs, each from a single pairing. Is your girl that you tested him with old/big and healthy enough to be bred right now?

Yeah, absolutely I wouldve never attempted it if that wasnt the case. She's slightly shy of 1500, but is 4 years old and has a good, thick, built body. She's definitely reeady if she does ovulate.

That's funny, this female originally came from Snake Keeper.

Came home from work they werent locked anymore, just cuddling so I put him back in his tub. He said he'd call her but it's probably not happening.

:rofl:

Good luck!

People always ask me how do you get snakes to "do it". I always respond with turn the light down low throw on some barry manilow,light a few candles, burn some insence and give the girl some flowers and wine.

Grats!!

Sure looks like it!

That was a fun little hop into seeing breeding in action. Weights at the time of lock were 1464 and 1017.

This lock is like the mic-check of breeding for me.
