Breeding???

flamedragon Apr 17, 2004 06:34 PM

What are signs of breeding?
I have a four year old male that puffs his beard out and runs in circles around the female then he will bit her neck and does not go any farther.
THe female does like a push up and just lays down.
What esle should i do to make this work?

Sounds like all that's missing is him mounting her. He'll go up along side her and she'll lift her tail a little so he can move in and do his thing.

But why does he stop after getting her neck?

Is this that young one that we were talking about the other day? If so, he may just not have figured it out all the way yet. Consider him like a 12 year old boy, he's capable but lacks the knowlege. He knows he's supposed to do something but not sure what. Give him some time to figure it out as long as she's not being overly agressive. And then take him out for a beer afterwards LOL (not really)
