Maybe the male used up his viable sperm mating with the first female, who I assume still has a healthy clutch. By the time he mated with the second female he was low on sperm and therefore her eggs were not properly fertilized. I have a trio of pyros which the first female produced a great clutch which is hatching as we speak, but the second female bred three weeks later never even got gravid, although she did mate with the male (have photographic proof of locks!) Just a wild guess...so FR does not need to scold me for such a lame idea! LOL!
