Late start..........

[PitOnTheProwl]

and cant seem to get a picture!!!
Tried to pair my pastel male to my granite and NEVER saw a lock. 3 days on 3 days off and nothing that I saw...............so yesterday was the 3rd or 4th pairing set and day 2 of it. I pulled out the pastel and tossed in the spyder just to see. Well he didnt even give me time to lock the enclosure and he was on her and working on a lock. It has been almost 24 hours and almost everytime I walk by they have been locked!!!
Question is: Should I pull him out tomorrow to give her a break since it would be day 3 of a pairing to her?

Though I am sooooo happy

If he's finished with the lock, you should pull him out, regardless. The 3-in/3-out recommendation is if you don't see a lock. You might even try the pastel again (after 3 days) - the scent of the other male could motivate him to get down to business.

If it is any help i spent 6 days at one point trying to find a 'gap' when my het ghosts wern't locked. they did separate for long enough to get the male out eventually.
