Question for those who know how to palpate

[Domepiece]

Actually, I have another question that has nothing to do with what I previously asked. If people see it, great! If not, ohh well. I just don't want to start another thread..

The first couple of times I put my male with my female, they locked within a few hours. But the last few times I put them together, the male doesn't seem to have any interest. I haven't noticed any tail wagging by the female but I also wasn't watching as closely. She's been peeing in there when I introduce the male, but I don't know if she's scenting the tub at all.. I tried putting another male's sperm plugs in the tub and on her, but nothing. Could she be rejecting him? She's still eating everything I put in front of her. Or is it the male that's just not interested? If it is the male, is there anything else I can try to get him going again? Or should I just give them a longer break (maybe instead of 4-7 day break, give them a month)?

Thanks!

It sounds like everything is going right with them especially if the female is peeing and tail wagging and the male has already locked with her. One thing is that if you introduce them too often they will stop showing interest or the female may believe that she is good to go and has stopped trying to attract the male. I only put a male in every 2 weeks and you only need 1 good lock a month. I personally think people put their male in too often. A longer break may be in order to get them going again. 4-7 is too soon.
