my male pastel locks up with my female norm.

now i know thats a good thing
but it takes him 2 days to get up and start hitting on her, and when he does
it lasts a good 24+hrs.

and on the 4rth day they stay locked up, so about 2 days straight they are locked up.

should i leave them that way or stick to 3 days on 3 days off?

i know of alot of lock ups lasting this long but i dont
want to exaust my male.

he has also been off feed for 2 weeks now.

3 weeks ago he ate a very large rat that i thought was too big for him.
after that he went off feed.
