Hi,
And exactly how does that jibe with good quarantine procedures?
If he borrows your male and exposes it to another snake then you should put the male into a 30-90 day quarantine period in another room - I suspect you were not planning on doing that in the middle of breeding season with one of your morph males.
In future I would advise you don't pair up any animal you may need to more in the next 24-48 hours to avoid this problem.
But in this case his lock potentially stopped you losing a load of your collection to disease.
