i have a female leo just over 3 years old, and a younger male, around a year old. My intention was to breed but i realize the age and slight size difference may be the problem; i still feel that the male is too young. is there any recommendation as to what i should do? they are in separate tanks and i have introduced them to each other a few times, but the male is still skittish. i do plan on buying another female around a year old, but hopefully the two i own now may be compatible as well. ;)

Female is ready to breed at 1 and half year old, and male at 1 year old so you can introduce your male in your female terrarium (home). If you buy a 1 year old female, she will be a bit youg for breeding, because breeding will stop her growing.

Thanks for the info, i'll make sure i only breed the female when she's over a year and a half old.
