    breeding ??'s

    Hey everyone, good luck to everyone. I've been reading and noticed that it's normal to pair 3 days on 3 days off but if they lock on the first day,do you separate or just let them be for the 3 days? both of my males have locked on the first day and i take them out when done, many hours later. should i let them be for the 3 days? also, i wasn't sure which male to breed so i'm breeding both males to the same female, is that ok? here are some pics. any advice is appreciated, i'm new to breeding.

    I have been doing the same, mine are locking straight off on average 36 hrs, when they are finished I have removed the male..all mine barr one have been mated to two males, I think it increases the odds on a male not doing the job..good luck

    I've been pairing my pair every 2ish weeks and if I observe a lock, then as soon as I see that they're no longer locked, I'll pull him. Finding him not locked is the tricky part

    I leave them in for 3 days whether or not I see a lock, then pull him. Some males are just fast.
