I would say 4 days in, 3 days out. Then every week change which female you pair him with. Just my 2 cents from what ive gathered. Someone with some more experience will certainly provide a better answer though.
I agree with Mike. He needs more rest, they have been known to breed themselves to death. Put the male in with a female for 3 days and then give him 3-4 days off (in which time you try to feed everyone), then put him in with a different female and repeat schedule. Do that with how ever many females you feel he can handle. If you witness a lock then take him out and start his break after they unlock (ie, you put him in and they lock right away and then unlock the first day, take him out for his 3-4 day rest). Good luck with your breeding and may the odds Gods smile upon you
