Hey Norm,

The breeding season just started here for me a few weeks ago. My pairings usually start in late January and go well into the late spring. I will leave the males in for about 4 or 5 days then separate them from the females. They get fed and then about 4 days later I introduce them again. I feel that keeping up a regular feeding schedule during the breeding season is a huge factor in the way these guys keep up their breeding efforts.

I just fed the female last night as she looked ravenous from the scent of the rats in the room for the other atb's, so she will have a few days off and then they will be reintroduced again.
