Man,he is one of the best breeders I have ever had.This is his fifth female and they have been locked up a couple times now.
He was actually pulling her around the cage by her head while he was plugged in.

All I did was read "tough love" and I knew what was going to be posted. I had a good chuckle before I clicked the post.

Good one, and good luck.

Shannon, do you think giving a male time off in between females to replenish his liquid life is neccesary??? Tom Stevens

Tom, Thats a god question.I have never really heard either way and I sometimes move him in with three females in one day and he does the job on all of them. I do give him a little break 24-48 hours as I feed the girls.

I try to give my males a day off in between. I have heard of people letting the male breed as much as he wants for days on end and have also heard of people giving males a rest anywhere from 3 days to well over a week. Interesting to hear how people have confidence in this......and even paranoia as far as worrying over the males fertility due to being drained.......those lucky dogs[if ya know what I mean]!
