I have 3 male adults, 1 female sub adult and a new female adult that just molted this morning.

How soon should I attempt mating? A few days? a couple of weeks?

Thanks,

Chris

I would say 3-4 weeks. Also others will have their own opinions. Maybe Rob or someone who has bred these before will know a better time period but wait at least 3 weeks

 
when i have bred this species in the past, i mated them two weeks after the females moulted to adult. im not sure if this can be done any sooner. as above, many would reccommend waiting longer to be safe (4 weeks or so).
