I feel that the only time handling can be bad is if you interupt them when they're showing any signs of interest in breeding. If they aren't hooked up or don't look like they're lusting after each other, handling them will be fine. In fact, sometimes handling can induce breeding.

Let the temps drop a bit, mist them a few times a day for a few days and then give them both a bath, stroking them down their body while in the water. Place them back into the cage and watch. I've done this several times and if done properly, most of the time it will induce breeding. Not every time, but most of the time.

Take care!
Mike
