It is not about cooling them down...... Where they are from there is no cool season or hot season...... It is a wet season and a dry season....... Keep them on the dry side for 2 or 3 weeks...... Then you start to mist them 3 times a week...... Introduce the male and you should see breeding almost instantly.....The breeding season for them is between now and December...... I have had pairs breed as late a January......
Good luck.....
