When i say pretty sure, i mean that i have.
All animals have an internal body clock, they know the seasons, they know the time of year to breed, breeding early means that you wont be hibernating them and therefor not giving them the best possible chance of having a fertile clutch. You bugger it up now, you also screw your chances for doing it at the right time, so just be patient, do it properly, do it right, do it once.
Sorry I won't ask anymore but I haven't realised how much I have gone on about it  I am Really Sorry Guys.
But Thank You all for advice and I am taking it on board as much as I can. You have all been really helpful |

Not meaning to slate you in any way, but Angel looks far too small to breed, how old/big (i.e length, weight) is she?
she might be bigger than she looks as the pic maybe out of date, but just thought I'd clarify.
She does look small in that picture but she is 4ft 2, and is quite heavy, like 700g, but I dont know how old she is  |

Mine decied to suprised breed in late nov/dec so it's possible. It's probably to do with the house being warmer in the winter than the summer so it might have confused them a bit. I'd wait though, extra time of being prepared and collecting bottle tops and take out tubs. |

reffering back to eeji's post and them probably not being interested in november and spring being the best time to try, i'd take that as a yes. |

chances are your pair won't be interested in breeding in November, early spring is the best time to try |
