I have a pair of cali kings and a proven F okeetee that doesn't really have a mate this year. I have been trying to pair her with the male cali.
Attempt 1 was just putting them together...nothing happened.
Attempt 2 was just putting them together. She flirted & flirted & flirted then got her head chomped...twice. I had to put them under water to get him to let go.
Attempt 3 was putting the female cali with a male corn--he got his head chomped & she actually started constricting him...Put under water & made mental note to be sure kings were fed before next attempt.
Attempt #4 was putting both calis together & trying to stick the corns tail in the right place at the right time. He was all for that idea but the corn would not let him in!
I've tried putting all 3 together crossing my fingers that no kings would do any chomping. Mr cali ws very interested in Mrs cali but if I pulled her out, the interest did not carry over to mrs corn.
Am thinking that I am nearing or maybe passed the corns "window of opportunity". Should I try something new or just stick her with a corn & try for jungles again next year?
Then what male do I choose? Lavender het motley, Amel stripey motley het caramel, diffused het amel, crimson het lavender or undersized but nice looking classic?
