Hello all!
Well, the past month and a half, I have been trying a new method I thought of to induce receptiveness, and it obviously worked!
Method-I slowly made the humidity lower, simulating a warmer dry month, and slowly lowered food intake. About halfway through, I slowly made it more wet, simulating a more humid environment. I also increased food intake. Keep in mind they were still getting ample amounts of food and water during the "dry" month, humidity was around 60-70%, instead of 80+%, which is where I like to keep it at.
So, today, I had a feeling, that love was in the air. I introduced the pair, and almost instantly, the male approached the female. Then, mounted her. I snapped two pictures, just enough to not bother the pair. I am excited to see the progress of the breeding.
Sorry that the second picture is out of focus, I snapped it fast to leave them alone. (Money shot
