I Have a trio 1.2 of leucs and the male started to call very frequently about 2 weeks ago. I was watching him call this morning and the female jumped up to his hidden perch, found him and pinned him down for about 3 minutes. Has anyone else experienced this type of behavior? I didnt know the males and females fought like that.

hehe... funny...
I bet if there was a forum in a distant galaxy about captive humans, one could ask a similar question...
... then the male got on top of the female, pinned her down and begun oscilating back and forth. Female started screaming and asking God for help. Then the male started slapping her on her a$$...Is that normal ? Should I soak the female in pedialite and give her some fenbendozole ? 
heheh
no worries man, the male can fend for himself...afterall he asked for it by calling her over...

Same idea as above. Anyone ever read Kurt Von Gute's book about the Titans, or see the movie (circa early '70's?) I can't recall the exact title, unfortunately. Get a megaphone and ask them sonoriously, "Are you breeding yet?"
