Female thinks shes the male

[HydraD]

I have recently placed my male in with my female and she is trying to breed with him but he seems to have no interest. She is bobbing at him and rushing over to him and sometimes its just a lick on the face other times she will try and bite his face, she has also tried to jump on his back bite his neck and started to wiggle her tail as if she were a male trying to mate. I am sure of the sexes of these two dragons as they have had many vet visits.
this part of dragon keeping is very new to me, i would very much appreciate any advice as to what i should do .

Thanks Kerry

What you have there is an "Alpha" female, which are very aggressive and can act just like males... Now it sounds like you have a very docile male or he's just not ready to breed yet.

What are their length, weight, and age? Have they been brumated?

Alpha females actually bred very well, but only to super aggressive males...

Kerry,

I had a girl that would do that. When a male finally did get on her she walked around and walked him right off of her. Then I got Kane. His first year breeding he was super aggressive and really locked down on her. She tried walking and he wouldn't let her. Like Anthony said, the aggressive girls make awesome breeders, you just need to have the right male.

This year Kane is much more relaxed. I had him in with Bella last week for a couple of days. All I ever saw was him get on top of her and then give up. I hate to not know but, I should find out in a week if he did the dirty.
