    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

hi

I have one male and one female in separate tanks. I want to breed them. I put the female in w/ the male two different time and he attacked her both times! Why did this happen? How is it suppose to work? Help!

Also, the male seems very violent. He tries to bite me. My female is chill, she just crawls on my arm and shirt, both are around 8 months old.
 
what exactly are they and how is that you are positive they are male and female?

Sounds like two males if you're talking about kings or corns

Can you post pics of the ventral side of their tails?

Sorry didn't realize I was in the Leopard Gecko Forum

Tail pictures would still help as it does sound like typical male behaviour
 
I haven't tried to put the male in w/ the female..he tries to bite me everytime I get close to him.

Sometimes he stands against the glass and I can see his preanal pores, also he made a crazy rattlesnake noise when the female was introduced.

There are no pores on the other(female) and it never did the rattlesnake thing.
 
When you say he attacked her, do you mean he bit her neck, back or tail? If so, that is normal breeding behaviour. You should watch very carefully the next time you put them together though, it sounds like you have a fairly aggressive male, and sometimes they can physically injure a female if she isn't "in the mood".
