Does it mean anything?

3 days on 3 off is only a rough guideline.

Things like sheds and eating can throw that off.
Females sitting on males can throw that off.
Putting them together and having them sit in separate corners for 2 days can throw that off, etc...

So, what is the right approach? I monitor them, to see if they are locking or not. So far, last season, and this, every pairing resulted in a lock. I also read to wait one day after meal before pairing again. Both ate good meal day after separation, so now, do I wait for female to shed, before I pair them again?
