Hey, i have 2 veiled chams, male and a female. i have put them together earlier on today and i need to check if what happend is correct.
As the female is very shy, we had to take the male from his viv and place him in hers. she immediately ran to the top corner of her viv because shes a little scared of humans, ( she does this every time we feed her of giver her water). when the male went in the tank, he spotted her and moved towards her while she stayed still. there wasn't much space for her to move because of the corner she ran in to, and we cant move her because she wont let us near her. the male proceeded forward (she never changed colour) so we thought everything was fine. as the male tried to mount her, she slightly gaped her mouth and began to stare and point her face towards the males belly area. the male had a firm grasp of her and they because to roll around grabbing each other. several time she escaped his grasp and he followed, (this happened many times). on the last time he tried she escaped again, only this time she bit his on his belly twice, the male then became slightly aggressive and bit her back. the f email ran away and hid in the corner. we seperated them back in to their own vivs. with in a couple of mins, they were back to their normal selves walking around their vivs. is this normal? and when should we try again?
