I put the shed in with her the day before I put the male in. The timing wasn't planned, another male just happened to shed that day.

My male locked once, and then showed zero interest the next two times I paired them... Then I tried putting the female into HIS tub instead, and he got going right away! I did the same thing the next pairing schedule, and he locked in less than a day again. No idea if that's the reason or just a coincidence, but it did the trick.

He just needed the home field advantage!

LOOOL he did, probably felt socially awkward at the girl's house.

I had a male that wouldn't lock females until he got over a kilo. He's a good breeder now.

Nope I bought a Male Granite Pin in 2007 and he has NEVER! Bred...like EVER.

That hurts my eyes. No luck on the shed from another male

You might try putting your male with another male for about 10 minutes, then in with the female.

Have you tried misting the pair after putting them together ?

Re: Did Your Stubborn Male Turn Around?
Maybe time out the pairing during a storm or weather shift. We're having a storm right now that makes me want to put my male with a female. I've times it so that I put my make banana in the females tub around a storm or weather shift and he has locked every time but the first pairing when the weather was calm. I don't know if that's what had an effect but it sure didn't hurt and he's locked the last three times. But I just pulled him out Sunday from one and my other female needs to put on a bit more weight. I'm saving her for next season since she's such a finicky eater. And I've only got the 2 females, for now.
