Question: Male sack laying

[webbo86]

Hi all, i have 4 axies, 2 male and 2 females or so i think, i know the the females are definate females and one of my male is deffo male as they have bred previously, i keep them seperate, male only and female only. question is i came down this morning to find me known male pacing the tank dropping sacks, will he drop them if he is in with another male or have i sexed wrong and have another female? thanks :happy:

As far as i'm aware they will and can still drop their stuff without the female present.

Although in this case if your not 100% sure on the sexes i'm sure you'll find out in the next few days

thanks melfly, theres 2 sacks still on the floor, looks like there is no intention of them been picked up, never seen them breed, only ever found eggs once the deed had been done there where doing a little mating dance if that means anything lol
