While some males do mature faster, the smaller males take a little more time. How old is your friend's female? It is advisable that the female be bred on her second heat or close to 18 months to two years of age. Olie might be more ready next time. |
Odie is yes just 8 months and he was definately interested in her but not ready. The female is 3 years old. We are going to try again on her next heat, perhaps by then he will have grown up a bit more and matured so that he'll be much more interested. (I'll have hubby have the *talk* with him by then. LOL)
Thanks for all your help and advice.
