My male bd jusr tryed mating with my female...  That wasn’t a very good idea. If your male and female did indeed mate, which at that age, I dont think is very possible, it is going to put alot of stress on your female. At that age, your lizard is still developing her body, and her bones. If she becomes gravid (pregnant with eggs) this is going to rob a major source of calcium, so your gonna have to make sure you give her an absolute diet with calcium (use the 2 repcal mixtures, they are at local petstores.) Just make sure you don’t have this happen again, cause it will be very bad on your female!
