Receptive female and males don’t care ?‍♂️

[Reptofreak]

This is my girl Dabby’s third time being receptive and neither of my males seem to want to breed her. She puts up no resistance and is basically hot pink. I have two mature males but neither will breed her. Looking for advice on how to get the fellas in the mood?

How does she act when she sees the males? Does she darken her colors? Hiss? Rock or sway?
How do they react to her?

She’s gorgeous! ?

She shows no aggression of any kind and stays pink. She will slowly walk around them and try to get them to follow her, I have even seen her go as far as to try to climb under them! The males also show no aggression, they just kinda ignore her.

She is in her enclosure now and is very restless looking for a mate.

Poor girl. She just wants some good ol' lovins.

Strange.

Have tried both of their enclosures and the free range with same results

How very odd. Have you tried placing one male in with the female, but have the other male visible to the pair?

Yep

Some males will not breed...I've had a few

 

[Fchamel]

Gorgeous! ?

Males have hormonal cycles and yours may have ramped down for the winter. Under artificial lights the up and down swings become random. In nature they would be seasonal.

It’s pretty frustrating to say the least.

I have been thinking this exact same thing. I’m just gonna chill on trying to pair them tell spring when they all get to go outside.
