    Has a male BP ever been flattened by a fatty?

    I just dropped my little male butter off at my buddies house. My little guy weighs almost 600g, the behemoth that he has been paired up with weighs in at about 3500. Will he survive his first time being with a woman?

    Haha, the title made me laugh. Yes, he will survive. Did you quarantine him at all before pairing him with your friends female?

    I agree, nothing to worry about due to size difference, but I would be worried about a lack of quarantine before your buddy starts breeding him.

    No, we did not do a quarantine. I got my butter from him originally, mite free didnt even think about it. Now that you mention it though, I will quarantine him when I bring him back home in a week or so.
