Let me see, you posed a situation. The situation is solved best by learning to palpate the females, that way you know what condition they are in. So you can decide to present a male.
Pheromones are indeed emitted by the female when she is ready to copulate. But you cannot smell them, so they do you no good. they also do the male no good when the male is in another cage.
If you kept the pair together, she would cycle, emitt the corresponding pheromones and the male would copulate and you would not have a need to ask this set of questions.
So, my comments had nothing to do with pheromones, because that had nothing to do with the question you posed. Do do understand, they emit all sorts of pheromones not, just for breeding. FR
