| cycle 7 days coming in, 7 days in and 7 days going out..or there abouts...I would not allow a female around a male for at least one full week after the 21 day time frame. |

| Heat Cycle After the 3rd week I would put my female near the male and see if he was still interested.... if so.... kept them apart.... eventually the male ignores the female.... that's when they can be put together again.

| cycle That's about the way it goes...3 weeks will take you to 21 days..there have been litters from breedings that late, but not as a rule. The female rarely accepts a male the first week, but that is not 100% either. |

| I'm so glad I saw this thread! My female had her first heat at 6 mth old and I thought I read somewhere that the have either a 6 or 8 or 12 month heat cycles am I wrong? anyway I was not expecting for her to go into heat again only 4 months later... so the week before was a possible oops and the last 2 weeks have been is my face right now... how do you do it? My male has chewed through the baby gate, went right through a screen door, jumps over or pushes down the new baby gate, scratches up every door in the house to find her if she is locked in a room. So we now have 2 baby gates over laping each other and strapped into place so that bathroom is like fort knox This is only her 2nd heat and they are both 9 months old... so I don't want them to breed yet! But with all the distruction something might have happened and we are still not out of the clear! He still wants her but she is getting her spunk back to push him away but there for a while she was just standing there and looked like she could care less... sorry reminds me of me. My husband and I have been trying for 3 years to get pregnant so it is clock work somedays... (back on subject) I don't want to punish him for wanting to do it because someday we want him to but he is just a ball of energy! |

| cycle Now you understand why so many people have accidental breedings. Ideally, you should have a place to keep them apart and not have the house wrecked...but that is not always possible. Good luck |
