lock ups

[KashGarter27]

How many lock ups does it take for a female to be pregnant. My male locked up with the female twice this month and they had a lock up in the month of January

I think when he stops showing interest you are set. When the female becomes gravid he should lose interest in trying. I'd just let them do their thing.

But it seems like its taking forever

did you see a visual lockup as in penetration? Ive had males ride females for months and never actually penetrate for an actual lockup and ive also seen males ride a gravid female.
Ive witnessed these things due to a cummunial same species enclosure in which ive learned alot about how they act as how they are very active at night verse daytime.

Yes they had a visual lock up on july 3rd and the 9th

If she's still putting out the right pheromones he'll react and want to mate. Once she stops he'll give it a rest.

then the wait begins.

Hes back @ it again trying 2 mate with her

I had a male and a female do the courting behavior for two months and she never got pregnant, I know the struggle and now i'm wondering if he's defective lol.
