We have just gotten into the reptile world. We have purchased 4 leos total, 1 male, and three females. First was the female, then the male (yesterday). They were purchased from different people, and got along fine and started breeding right away. Today we picked up two more females, who are slightly smaller (We were told 1 year old, but they look small, possibly from her having the two in a 10 gallon tank for the past while?). Our male has been trying to breed the smallest of the two new females (the larger of the two new ones went fine) but it turns into a small fight every time, he latches on to her, and she snips back. It never lasts more than a few seconds and they separate. Is this something to worry about?? Should we separate the female that has been argumentative to him? They have only been in the same tank for about an hour so far, should we give them more time? During one of the little battles he latched on to her eyelid, and that was a bit scary.
