    questions on gtp breeding

    hi guys got some queries on gtp breeding, hoping you guys could help me out here.

    my pair of gtp have been over laping each other.

    for 2 nights i have been sneaking up on them, but i did not spot any locking, mainly because both hid their tails from view.

    it is a possible lock?

    how long do locking usually last?

    praying for my own clutch of baby gtp!

    thank you guys!

    In my experience overlapping coils is a sign of courtship but not copulation. They may be locking Inbetween the periods you see them overlapping but for my pair the lock happened after this time.

    Most locks can be observed with tail hanging. One of my girls laid yesterday and I never witnessed a lock....hoping they both prove to be hets. Good luck.
