i think yr theory makes sense. there is another male i am consistently putting in her enclosure - so yes, other male smell. people are always saying the scent of another male can get a second male to kick in gear and competitively mate, but maybe if that scent is everywhere it can mask the "hey i'm a female you nimrod" effect that we keepers always assume is apparent to secondary males. anyway, till i hear a better theory, this is what i'm going to work with.
