    Advice To Get locks

    I need some advice and tips to get locks. I have 5 pairings currently, but no locks. Some of them are actually laying on seperate ends of the tubs. I have dropped Temps down to 27 centi, then raised them back to 32 centi, a lot of my friends are getting locks, what am I doing wrong.

    Pair during cold front, storms, low pressure.

    Use sperm plugs from other males and smear them on your female's backs.

    Use sheds from other females or shed from other males and put them in with the animals you pair.

    And remember because you don't see lock does not mean it does not happen, I have many clutches each year that were produce and no lock were witnessed.

    Re: Advice To Get locks

    Interestingly, we had a storm come through last night, so I quickly threw 5 pairs together at about 8pm, this morning at 8am when I checked, 2 pairs had locked. 100% het Pied x 100% het Pied. And Fire x Fire.
