well...people bred 350 gram males for awhile now...this weekend alone a guy told me of his 450 grammer playing it well...then another guy tells me of his 2011, 175 gram male breeding.....yea....I , personally...have used small males...like 770 grams...yea...10 month old and 770 grams ....more or less....and he worked....

I usually didn't have males actually try and breed till they went through a winter...so they were usually into the second year till they worked...like 16 to 22 months old....

I have used males that may have been 30 ?...no idea...HUGE....they bred alot of females....

...small males....well...small males ahve small penes...therefore the vent on the female won't be bubbling with moisture when they are finished...a 5 1/2 foot ,30 year old male that just bred for 14 hours...you will have no need to use a wet tip most of the time....

try dry Q-tip and squeeze the female a little bit...not too much...maybe a couple inches of her...it will be counter productive...(you actually want to squeeze it upwards INTO her)...(((which makes me wonder why people squeeze the crap out of females and say they wantr to feel follicles,while squeezing sperm count the wrong way..)))....

or IF you are very lucky and see them part ways...the male should be wet also....

....? just squeeze the male ? see what happens....
