Hi everybody, Im new to posting but have been following your posts religiously for months. I have a 2000 g cbb03' normal female, and a cbb 05 pastel male, 500-550g. I cooled both down around mid sept, when the male was around 250-300g. This was too early because he went off feed due to cool temps and I wasnt able to get him back up to size. (lesson learned) But I raised temps back up around mid oct and hes been eating like crazy since. The female has been eating like a pig too. I kept them together for a few days at a time, seperated, fed, and done again. I witnessed ZERO locks, But the male would crawl all over her and then they would just curl up together. They have been together off an on for about two months now, and Im worried maybe the male isnt interested. Also while they used to "like" each other, now they cant get far enough away from each other. Last night they actually escaped their cage to get away from each other. Ive heard this is a sign they have already bred, but I havent seen anything and trust me ive been watching like a hawk. This is my first year breeding, so im trying to put all the tidbits of info together to be successfull. Any clues what to do from now on? I was thinking keeping them seperated for a month or so....FEED as much as they will take, RE-cool now that the male is up to size, and give it a go again. Any info or tips would be AMAZING. Thanks alot, Jeremy
