Males will be too interested in the females to bother peeling.

Do all females peel at this time of the year or will some males peel to .I have male and females tanked am i wasting my time with males now.

Males peel first, they need a new shell to mate, they peel before the females so they don't miss out on nookie. The majority of males will have peeled by now if your females ae peeling.
