Have a question and need help, I have a female mature cresty I tried breeding her last year and didn’t see any locks but she winded up laying infertile eggs, now I just went to get her out and she’s definitely full of eggs. Do y’all think there most likely infertile? And when should I put the male in with her? Thank you guys any help is so appreciated
If she’s been laying infertile then they’re most likely infertile also.
What’s her weight?
I personally add the female to the males enclosure, as then the males scent doesn’t stay in with her.
She’s around 45-50 grams
Is it a good time to pair her after she lays these infertile eggs
Oh perfect then!
Yeah wait until she lays, then I typically add females in for 3 days and then remove, then see if next eggs are fertile
Okay awesome will do, thank you so much for responding and helping me out because I’m very appreciative
No worries!
Anything else just ask!
After she lays these infertiles how long after that should I pair her with the male
Once laid, I’d say give her a couple days to recuperate, check weight again and then you’re fine to pair
Seems like they’d be infertile. Yes a few days rest will do her good. I’d suggest checking her weight before pairing also.
I use a separate enclosure to put male & female in.
