Does the male have to shed?

phiber_optikx Mar 13, 2007 01:37 AM

After no confirmed copulation yet a thought crossed my mind. Does the male have to have a post brumation shed before her will breed?

They dont have to shed first but sometimes a fresh shed can put a shy male in the mood for a little sexual healing if you know what I'm saying. Randy W.
