Nothing happening

Hi, I am trying to breed a pair of Nosy Bes. The female is 14 mos. and the male is 1 yr. This is my 2nd time putting them together, with a day in between. The female is not showing any signs that she does not want to mate (no dark colors), but she just dances around the male. He has done a few head bobs and his color is beautiful! They have been together most of the day without incident. My question is...should I keep them together overnight, or put him back, until, yet, another day??? When I can watch them? Thanks.
 
Do you have another mature male? Nothing like a little male competition to get things going. Just place the extra males cage, in view/eye sight of the Nosy's your trying to mate.

"Update....."

Things were jumping, today! Instead of bringing Indigo Viking to Siren's Song's cage, I took her to his. Things got "hot" really quickly. The first time they got together, it was for over 2 hours, :eek: and then they did it again, later. I do not know if they did anything, this afternoon, as I had to run for groceries. He is soooooo tired, and is now shedding. What a day for the Viking. She was still interested until it came to bedtime. I finally put her in her own cage, cause I think she will be laying eggs at the end of June. :D
 
Grats! That's great news.. I am sure that Viking is a happy boy! Haha. Also, if this happens next time you go to mate them.. you can try taking them outside. My male would do the same thing.. just a little bob then NOTHING. My girl was like.. hey dude.. let's get this on.. I tried for a month with no luck. I took them outside and placed them on a branch system I have out there for them.. within seconds.. making that cham love. :) Grats again!
