Well big male covered fiesty lass today,she fought back but he persisted,copping bites back for his efforts,just made him more determined,she wouldnt lift her tail for him so i ended up liffing it for him to finish

Young male didnt show interest in his female so think windows finally shutting all round,has been over 4 weeks since they started

[Lea]

Well, hopefully they have been successful. How many females do you suspect may have had a positive, umm, "interaction"?

[Richard.C]

3 this season,big male with prince regent lass and fiesty lass,young male with 3rd lass,fiesty lass and 3rd lass had babies lastseason to big male,first season for young male and prince regent female

[Lea]

Oh, then there's a very good chance you'll have some babies. I hope they all do well, you'll have so many!

[Richard.C]

Im quietly confident,long way to go to find out though,lol,had twenty three last season

Popped a few males in with some girls tonight. Action straight away.









Took the males out after 30 mins, I don't want the females bashed too much.

Nice one rory,is that a late start to the season up there,guess it depends on how they are cycled,do any of your males go more than once a day,mine only go once,still show interest but dont try grabbing again after earlier copulations

Nice looking specimens

[Jeff]

It looks to me like you guys have plenty of Kimberlies down there. Could you please just figure out a way to send some to us!

I probably could have started earlier, just thought I would wait until the start of Spring. This was their first go for the season and I removed them from the girls once the action had finished. I don't want any missing body parts from any blueys this year

[Richard.C]

They certainly can be fiesty buggers

[also of note,hadnt noticed last season,but when copulating its quite loud,like u can hear each squirt of eww

I've noticed the noises with my northerns too. The male puts off 15 - 20 little clicks apx 1 second apart. I've never noticed any 'residue' when they are done though.

[Richard.C]

Clicks,thats what i witnessed to,ive only seen it in the northerns,well heard it,lol

Will have to pay closer attention to the others next season
