My female is currently at my mentors house for her first breeding. The male has some experience but it having problems with my female. She is a little longer then him in the neck and torso. Any ideas?
I agree, we had a breeding like that recently, the male is only a little over a year old, he had some difficulty at first, but a determined male will figure it out quickly.Originally Posted by GoldenKitty45
I'm sure he will figure it out soonNothing you can do to "help" him out.

Not that it matters now, but the male can carry active sperm for about a month after neutering, so it could have happened after, good to know if the situation comes up again though.Originally Posted by Godiva
Come to think of it, that's why I thought Ziggy was unsuccessful at first too. I didn't think he "got it" until after he was fixed (we did separate them afterwards, but it was too late... the booger got her preggers just before we took him in).

I second this! They will hump till they are blue in the face or just drop over, whatever it takes, they'll do it. Sometimes it can take a little while for the connection to be made, but if he doesn't get it, I agree with the other person who said this, there is nothing you can do. I had a male like this once. He had the drive but he could never successfully penetrate. Incidentally he was the best quality male I ever had...it figures!Originally Posted by FamilytimeRags
