He's courting her. This can happen for a couple days before mating, or it can happen for months.

I'd say it's a good sign that at least the male is interested in breeding.

It's not uncommon for them to take breaks either.

Agreed. I think a lot of people pull their males mistaking a break for being done. I have a male that will breed 4 days on one day off like clock work, he did this for over a month and half or so before the female ovulated. If your female is in good shape for breeding, I would not pull him (except for occasional feeding) until you see her swell.

I agree with consensus, Brian -- and better to leave them together for too long than risk pulling before they are done!

Good luck,

What is this pairing? More particular, the animal the arrow is pointing at?

Saw the white specks and thought maybe it was a het Albino. I've seen those same specs on many hets and DH's.

You'll know when the male loses interest. He'll be the other side of the cage, or when he is with her, he's not doing anything. We're talking more then just a couple days though.
