    Re: 2 Months, 7 pairings, and Notta!

    And there are times when they stay as far away as possible from each other. Juno my female has been off feed but hasnt lost weight, and Al my male has been eating steadily, and I am still keeping him on a lean diet.
    Other than that I took them both to the vet, and they re-sexed her, and she is indeed a female, and Al is indeed a male.
    Anyways, I haven't the slightest clue as to why they are doing nothing. My only hope is that they are locking up in the middle of the night, or sometime when I am not catching them.
    The other thing to remember is males often know what is going on with the female (follicly speaking ). It is possible your male is just very discerning and is choosing to save his energy for when your female is in a better stage of development...

    Usually I see males most active when the follicles are 1-1.5 cm.... then their interest dies off for a month or so... becoming more interested in breeding again when follicles get 3 cm+.

    Don't despair!
