Males will keep trying to mate and will burn out
He might not feed due to Beening in breeding mode all the time.
Also
Males can breed alot sooner than females and if you get a male breeding with a 800-1000 gram female
She may become egg bound and that's not good
End of the day it's only my opinion and
It's up to you to make the final decision
Im not having a go thats the last thing i want to come across
Just saying what might happen
And why it's prob best to have them in diffrent setups
If there hatchling now there's not problem keeping them together for now |
