agree with that statement!

I don't keep a 24hr watchful eye on them, but for sure these males aren't even courting. I'll keep em on her no doubt, but if she ovulates and i hadn't seen any breeding, I'll be very disapointed. It also wouldn't make much sense to me. It's pretty odd, if you know and confirm a female is in cycle like i have, what reason, if there is any, would a male not be interested in courting her? Can't be off season..i've had males breed at all times of the year. Enviromental conditions? I've experimented with different temps and humidity to see what might get them going, but to no avail.

LIke you said, looks like i need to find another hobby for the time being...get my head out of the sand =)
