My female headbobbed really slowly at my male.

[UltimateShelly]

I was moving around my room today, and I put my female on my bed, not thinking it was directly in view from my male.

I heard a slight rustle as I was cleaning and looked back to see my male headbobbing really fast and trying to get out to her. She then proceeded to do a really slow headbob back to him? I only understood the fast bobs, but what do the slow bobs mean?

Thanks

(Sorry if it's in wrong section)

I've taken this to be the flirty bob. The come hither bob. Both my girls have done this to my boy, and they laid eggs not long after, lol! Then the mood passes, and they give him the fast mini angry bobs now when they see him (which is almost never now).

So she's allowing him to mate with her?

I thought it was more or less forced-mating with beardies :s

Oh it is...but the female is still signaling that she's receptive to mating.
