If you think about it, there is very little reason to think your animals should be normal or sane. They are kept in boxes that have nothing to do with anything normal to them. So to expect sanity or normal is a reach.
Sanity(accepted normal, it works) differs from insanity(abnormal, fails to work) In the case of one eating the other, that's a failure to work, or insane. Normally and naturally, these animals mate and make offspring and its not normal for them to eat eachother. So what you have is a problem. How to cure that problem is much harder then preventing that problem to start with.
While so many dwell on hunger being the problem, its not. The problem is, how come that female thinks a male is food. Or why does she want him dead. That's the problem. Not hunger. Maybe that's why guys tend to put the moves on the ladies, AFTER DINNER.
I would first prevent it by socializing the animals, ahead of reproduction. Or play on female behavior. End of part 2
