    She's just not that into you?

    Ok, I've tried everything. Cooling, misting, using another males substrate/shed and Charlie and Precious are still acting like jr high kids at a dance, stuck firm to the opposite sides of the tub. I know it's a waiting game, I'm doing 3 days in 3 out. Is there anything else I can do to get these two to do it???

    Switch to one week in, one week out. Maybe absence will make the heart grow fonder! It'll also be easier on you.

    you know honestly, the one week in and one week out, is what i do. it is easier but my males lazy and uses 2 days on her hot spot and 2 days on HER.

    you can also make sure he goes in on the 3rd day after he eats. he may be a little chubby and that could be y,

    my male pastel had to lose a little weight before he started with the locking up's.

    and since oct. he's kept himself on a diet of his likeing.
    1 -2 mice a week,
    he'll eat rats but when he was on rats, they took longer to digest and his energy was lower when id introduce him to her tank.

    try the same, maybe he's just got too heavy a butt to go flonting it in her presence.

    Re: She's just not that into you?

    Hi,

    You could try putting another breeding sized girl in with them if you have one and it won't screw up any projects.

    Especially if he has shown intrest in the other girl previously.

    unfortunately she's my only female that's big enough. I have a young mojo that's not quite ready weight or age wise, but do you think putting him in would spur some action?

    Oh, you mean putting two males in? yeah, that can help. But keep an eye on things for the first hour or so if you do that--my males have all been roommates in the past, and don't act up towards one another. But I've heard unfamiliar males will often posture aggressively when there's a female at stake.

    But I've also heard that getting them to feel like another male is moving in can trigger breeding in reluctant males.

    Have you tried playing a Barry White CD, it works on all the movies? Sorry I could not help myself.

    Do you have another male producing plugs? If so wipe a plug from another male on the female's back closer to her vent. That should do the trick.
