I would breed them yet, especially if you just got them because you don't their health history. Producing will pull a lot nutrients from the female's body and she could wound up dead later. Making eggs is very costly. I would get them to the vet and have him/her check them out. Things like if they have any parasites or not can make a difference when you are trying to breed them.

And, definitely get them feeding on some salad....
