    He/She needed a bath

    Tonight I removed one of my dark phase males from a female enclosure. He had been doing his Spring duty with these 3 girls. He had been in with them for 2 weeks. I put the young man back into the male enclosure. Within moments he had 3 males on him. They followed him around like he was a female.
    It then dawned on me that he may have picked up some of the female pheromones. I took him out and gave him a quick bath. Once back in the enclosure he was left alone. I bet he was surprised at the reception he received

    That's happened to me before. That's what I get when I try out a new bar.

    So you were left alone after you took a shower

    Soooo.....did you use AXE followed by Old Spice so that he "smelled like a man"?

    Poor guy! He must've felt like the 'soup of the day'!
