Answer
Hi Miriam

When you breed them for a week straight, you are going to have a tougher time to determine when she's due as it's 63 days from ovulation. So you'll be sitting on pins and needles in 2 months time.

They only need to breed either once a day for over a three day period or every other day over a week.  You want to ensure that neither one gets damaged.  

The female should only stand for the male for a number of days. However if she is letting him mount every time, the responsible thing to do, is keep them apart as it's not necessary for the female to be bred every day for 21 days.

Good luck
