Never really experienced that with my male when Miah was ready to whelp. Seems a bit strange to me but even stranger is with our newest litter (Rubys first) my girl Brandi who is fixed tried to mount her several times after she had the pups. I think that she was overwhelmed by the fermions. She hasn't done it in a few day now, thank goodness.
the mounting of your spayed female to the bred one is an act of dominance, only the alpha female is allowed to be bred, so your bred girl now is by default your alpha female and the other one is trying to establish that SHE is the one..is a herarchy thing...LOL
