lock-ups?

[kylearmbar]

Update.. after seeing a few possible lock ups the male no longer seems interested and no more lock ups in almost 2 weeks. I've heard of putting male sheddings in, showing him to another male and letting another male scent up the girls cage. All I have is a young, 250 gram pastel boy, would this work with him to stimulate the larger 1000 gram male to breed again?

Thanks I didn't know that, I knew some snakes still ate but didn't know that's what she should be doing. Is there a way to tell if the cycling has been working for her too? I know she should be building follicles.

Yes, palpate her to feel for follicles.

No need to add extra stress to your small male...They only need to be introduced once a month, so not locking in the last two weeks is no biggie...

Thanks, but for future refference will a non sexually mature male still be enough to make the other male "jealous" and breed again? Also im no good at feeling for follicles, but the bottom portion of her belly does look wider
