I am just at the end of 7 weeks of cooling and started putting the males in with the females last week. I started gradually raising temps when I put males in with females. The temps are up to the low 70s tonight. The first five nights I saw no courtship. Last night I fed most of the females and moved each of the males to the next cage of females. Tonight there is mating taking place in two cages. Both mating males are imports that I got in 1993. The females were born here in 1998 and 1999. All four of these are proven breeders.
