Just thought I'd show everyone My first lock. Against all hope one of my other females has hit breeding weight, so we thought we would give our Pastel het Ghost male who has just about hit 600gms a go. We put them together yesterday and he has been courting her since, we went in a little while ago and this is what we found Very Happy

Not the best picture I had to take it throug the front of the RUB without the flash Laughing

Thanks for the nice words and well wishes, it may all come to nothing, but we'll see Wink

Goshe is a pastel het 100% het ghost and his colour in the scales is glaring Laughing

His blushing gets better everytime he sheds as well. He's one of the boys that came from Scott last year and from Markus Mandic Very Happy

Until I see her sitting on eggs, nothing is certain. They have unlocked now and he's just been taken out and was very glad to get acquainted with his dinner Laughing

I'll give him 3 days off now, and then he can go a wooing again Very Happy

Cheers Paul Wink

I certainly will keep everyone posted. He's enjoying his dinner at the moment bless him, she's sulking a giving me the "you let him violate me mummy" look Laughing

She even refused her dinner, which is unheard of for Delta Force Laughing

He's been courting her since yesterday, and had several attempts at locking with her neck, but I think he's worked it out now Laughing

I'd quite like to her produce and for them to be viable eggs mainly as neither of them have been cooled, and I'd like to not have to cool next season either, as I personally would prefer not to add any possible additional strain on their delicate immune systems. I know my beardies and leos and fat tails have all bred without cooling, so I'm just hoping the same will apply to the balls Smile
