Why blue ambanja male don't wonna mate?

[ppts4511]

He is three years old, and she is about a year old.
And she has mating experience and spawning experience with other males.
But he's never had a mating.
If i put him in her's enclosure, he avoids her and hisses at her.

How can I make him mate with her?

And attach my guys Pics~ thx

I remember laying eggs about four times. Once, she laid fertized eggs and the other laid unfertized eggs.

Put her in with him

How is she behaving when you put him in her enclosure? Swaying back and forth, hissing, lunging at him, turning dark colours or remaining calm and just slowly moving away from him?

Have you always put the male in with the female when you want to mate them?

 

[kinyonga]

Put her in with him

That gives him the upper hand/advantage and may boost the chances of a mating as long as she is receptive.

The OP said that only one clutch was fertile….but all the clutches would have required calcium for the egg shells. Some females can be full grown at a young age….but I still wouldn‘t mate mine until she was a year old.

How many eggs were in each clutch?

I'm not really understanding the question, but the amount of food plays a big part in the number of eggs. Don't cut back on calcium or you'll have a female with mbd.

Is or would it not be reccomended that I female not be breed until they where at least one year old?

Yup IMHO…just added that to my last post.

Agreed, I believe most breeders hold back females until around one year old.

sry about that I'm Korean so... I'm using a translator. anyway I mean she have laid fertized clutch just ones.

You can try putting them together on a house plant and branches that don't belong to him or her and see if that works. Sometimes neutral territory will help them breed.

Have you tried mating them outside after they’ve been exposed to the sun? Is she showing receptive colours?

ah~? I didn't try mate them outside but, I will give it a try.
I think she showed recetive color before cuz when she was with him, there was no action, and the color was orange or apricot.
