really urgent someone answer !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Metallicaman999]

im pretty sure that when a male emp shakes(like jutters back and forth) beens they want to mate right? because my male seems to want to mate but my female emp is just standing still or hesitating answer QUICK

 

[Bayushi]

the female might already be gravid.

 

[Metallicaman999]

right now the male keeps on jurking her and dragging her and she just stands still or moves away. there was another emp in the petco tank when i bought her but that one was like 3 inches bigger than her. PLEASE ANSWER QUICK

 

[Bayushi]

okay... sounds like she is either gravid or immature.

 

[Metallicaman999]

ok they might be mating now they are going back and forth facing each other and they are holding themselves with there teeth peds. its like a tug o war if you know wat i mean

 

[Metallicaman999]

okay... sounds like she is either gravid or immature.

shes about 3.5 inches long with tail curled up. the male is 4 with tail curled up

 

[Bayushi]

yeah they doing the dew. you do have a flat rock or something in there for the male to deposit the spermataphor on, right?

 

[Metallicaman999]

ok now i know its a fight they seperated and are pinching each other im going to break this up.

 

[Metallicaman999]

yeah they doing the dew. you do have a flat rock or something in there for the male to deposit the spermataphor on, right?

ok now they decide to hook up again FUC* no i dont its plainly substrate but they are on the arched log now

 

[Bayushi]

well the log should work as a place for the male to attach the spermataphor . sounds like in 9 months to a year you will end up with babies. congrats!!


oh keep an eye on them as the days go on. sometimes the female will get nasty towards the male as she gets bigger

 

[Metallicaman999]

ok for sure its a mate now. they stood still for about 30 seconds, but they are still holding each other, so are they done or something wait wait THEY SEPERATED AND ARE GOING DIFFERENT WAYS, oh nvm the male is still shaking god damn it hurry up and finish this

 

[Bayushi]

sheesh, let em have some privacy..... LOL

 

[Metallicaman999]

ok now they have gone seperate ways. thanks bayushi:worship: a ton and i guess ill inform you in 9 months!:clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap:

 

[Bayushi]

i've been waiting since september for one of my females to pop.... so, you might have more than a 9 month wait as well

yo bayush, in the same place that they mated on the log, there is a small piece of some kind of stuff, like right under where they mated, is this sperm residue or did he miss his target?

 

[Bayushi]

yeah that is the spent spermataphor. a definite sign he knocked her up

 

[Metallicaman999]

yeah that is the spent spermataphor. a definite sign he knocked her up

so is she still going to be preg. or did she get away?

 

[Bayushi]

well i would venture a guess that he did the job..... so look for babies next year

 

[Metallicaman999]

ok to kill this thread, im going to end it by saying that this was probably a rape because he dragged her by her tail for like 3 minutes until she gave in and they tugged and tugged for what seemed like a heads up match. thanks to bayushi and i guess ill inform you guys in 9 -11 months

 

[quiz]

If you didn't see him pull her then it probably wasn't a successful mating. She probably didn't want to take it. I've seen it happen with my H.judaicus.
