blood is fairly common during shedding and I would not consider that to be a sign of breeding. On a side note, why are you getting stressed that he isn't breeding yet? I know alot of really big breeders haven't even started cooling yet much less even think about introducing animals. We won't even start to lower night time temps until maybe mid-december and start introducing jan 1. Almost all of our females are pounding rats as I feel they are trying to get as big as possible now and they usually start to go off-feed around mid-november. Hope this helps.
