I just recently had a female attack and injure a male after being introduce for breeding. Xrays revealed that he has several broken ribs . These two were off feed for at least a month, and she is a virgin. I think his movement may have caused her to strike and wrap him up in thinking he was food. I think long periods of time without food will increase their chances of attacking another - not just the smell of food.
