    Re: No Locks - Next Steps?

    If he is a first time breeder, you may need to leave him in with her for longer periods of time. I will typically leave my newbie males in for 5 to 7 days before I see them lock. While 3 days is the accepted standard, you have to do what your animals need. They don't read the same books/forums that we do.

    Hope this helps!
