No pollen on male yellow squash flowers

I have one yellow squash plant that keeps producing male flowers with no pollen. Just trying to understand why it's doing that? Am I doing something wrong? I water daily and fertilize every 2 weeks or so. I havent had this issue with any blooms coming off of my zucchini plants(I have 7 of those) so I went ahead and used them to pollinate the yellow's and it seems to be working. Before they were rotting off the vine and now they are looking healthy. There are about 10 fruit growing on that one plant but still no fertile males. Just trying to understand the lack of pollen on the one plant and figure out what caused it so I can avoid it next year..Any ideas?
