Placed the pair together again today. Figured it was safe as they both refused mice yesterday.

The male again started doing his thing following her around, quick jerking movements, subtle muscle undulations, etc, but the female wanted no part of it. She musked a little, crawled like crazy, and even gave him a nip right on the face. So I pulled her out of the "neutral ground" box I had put them in.

I felt sorry for the guy so I grabbed a generic amel cal king that has been just a pet with no breeding plans for years. I put her in the box and they both just sat for about 5 min with no movement and then together and at the same time just drifted together and locked up. Theyve been at it for about an hour now.

So my male knows whats up, it's just the goofy female thats being a prude. I guess i'll try her again in a few days and see what happens.
