Waiego Islands breeding

Here is the gravid female with the male on her again today. I have to tell him to wait but he cannot hear me, but who listens anyway?

That pic is of a male mating an already gravid female. They have been at it for 12 hours so far. Viagra was not used.

I wish they'd done that several months ago, I'd love to get some of those babies now. They look great.

They did that many months ago hence why the female in the breeding photo looks gravid because she is indeed gravid and this male will not let her be. He recently was attracted to her again and I am waiting for him to get off her so I can separate her and allow her to have her babies in peace. He jumps her for about 12 hours each day the past week. I hope she retains the sperm and drops this litter and gets prego again. I have two other females in there but the male seems to like this gal. Perhaps because she cannot run away fast. lol.

Oh I thought she was beginning to look gravid just recently since you'd been introducing them. I guess I didn't read carefully enough before posting.
