My MBK's copulated on April 4,7,and 11. On the 11th when I introduced the male he bit her and started constricting so I separated them and fed the male 5 mice. I reintroduced about 2 hours later and her bit her trying to copulate but she was fighting it. After about 6 hours she gave in and they were connected for about 2 hours. She's starting to look really fat so I put them back together and he went after her to breed but she flipped out coiling up and flipping her tail around worse than I've ever seen it. The other thing is her appetite is diminishing and his is increasing. Could this mean the job is done? Rainer I know what you going to say, but I put them together everyday without any problems until the other day. No doubt in my mind he was trying to eat her. Coiled several times and squeezing HARD.
