Fighting not mating?

[Shabutie]

i put one of my males with my female(she is def. female). she started to footstomp/blackbeard and headbob back at my boy. He attempted to breed and she just bit him back. My boy then started to wiggle his tail and snap at her. I seperated them immediately after he snapped. This was when i put the male in the females enclosure. should i try the opposite?

Im not expert but mating is a very harsh and violet process. If she snapped at him first it could mean she isnt ready or just dosnt like him!

Try putting them in a communal area, where neither will feel the need to protect territory. Have you got everything set up for the eggs?

yep. i actually have 6 leopard eggs and 12 beardie eggs in incubator right now im starting to think she just doesnt like him. if worse comes to worse i guess ill try my hypo trans male out when hes old enough
