my male Aft i have just doesnt feel like breeding all he does is chirp a little and rattles his tail then get disintrested does anyone have tips on getting a male to be more aggresive or any tips for breeding at all is appreciated

Make sure the female is ovulating would be my first suggestion. How old is your male and the weight?

 

[NSgeckos]

my female is ovulating because she is very receptive shes the one wanting to breed hes just not intrested hes about 55 grams

he was also hatched in 2010

AFT's are known to be less aggressive than leopard geckos, for example. Just because you don't see him completing the act, it doesn't mean he isn't. You may be surprised to get eggs anyway. I don't think there's really much else you can do (they can't read the manuals).

haha yeah the only thing is i introduced them october 9th and just a few minutes ago i checked for ovulation and saw some embryos no full eggs so am guessing he didnt breed her so hes in cool down right now

 

[geckobabies]

My suggestion would be to cool him down if he's not showing much interest in ovulating females. Good luck!

thanks i hope cooling finally does him in
