Looks like my plans for putting Marty to my big girl after xmas are unlikely as he's stopped eating :-( do royals as young as Marty fast in breeding season as i thought they only did that when older/bigger he's around 450g i think i will weigh him again today to make sure he hasn't lost too much and maybe move him into a 12l rub in my rack to see if that gets him going again |

Yes, they definitely fast that young...they can breed as light as 350 grams, tho it is the exception, and many will breed at 500 grams. One of my boys, at around 600 grams fasted last year from December 19 to March 4 and didn't lose a gram. Astounding. |

Ok thanks guys, so if he doesn't lose any weight do you think it would be still ok to put him in with my female? Going to move him to a rub in my rack today to see if the smaller space helps him along too |

Can't hurt to give it a shot :) My black pastel is just a little bigger, and is all over it! |
