Received 2.1 from Andrew to baby sit, didn't take much to get the job done, just had to feed her the first male and she was ready to go. He's been with her 4 days on and off breeding.

For these guys to be so plentiful in the spring and early summer they sure are seriously underbred here.

 
Increased heat and humidity in the females viv is all it takes when introducing the males in my experience. Puts them in the mood when they hit the atmosphere.

i agreed, maybe many are intimidated by them. they key to successin breeding is perfect husbandry. replicate their habitat in the wild,
