    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....

I've got a male bearded dragon, over a year old. He has bred a female dragon before and produced fertile eggs. However, since the initial breeding he has not attempted to breed any other female (2 different females).

A friend has another male bearded, and we caged them next to each other in clear containers and my male went crazy trying to get to the other male, very aggressive. But when I introduced a female to his cage in front of the other male, he still would not breed. I've placed the female in the other male's cage and he will breed her, but when switched back to my male, nothing happens.

Anybody have any suggestions on what I could do to encourage my male to breed?
 
Allow the males to see each other through the clear containers like you have been doing, but only for 5-10 mins. After this 5-10 min period, introduce the male to the female. But make sure that the male that isn't breeding is completely out of the picture (can't see each other, at all). If they can still see each other, than the male that you want to breed will often attempt to dominant the other male instead of breeding.

Also, keeping the male and female together for a cycle of 1 day together, 2 days apart usually works well.
