Males can be bred to multiple females, usually breeders will put a male into the cage of a female, give him two days or when lockup is observed, they then move him to the next female cage and repeat. Most will bred a few females then give the male a rest for a couple days, offer some food if he takes it, then put him back into more female cages.
The male is rotated through all the females throughout the cooling period will ovulation is noticed or the females stop showing interest in breeding...However I don't recommend putting one more with more than 4-5 females. Make sure he gets that rest period though, this gives him time to develop more sperm..he has a limited supply and will run out if he is continuously bred without a break.
