Question
hi i have done all my research on breeding dragons, i have
female i just put with male, they have been toghter all night and still this morning he keeps laying next to her and bobing she is waving and he is black under the chin, but wen he grabs the back of her head she will not lift her tale any ideas to help them breed

Answer
Hi Steven, The rest is really up to them. They are both engaging in the appropriate social signals and your female sounds receptive. Some more experienced males are able to quickly  manipulate the female into positiion but your male will likely get the hang of it! It could be that a successful breeding has already taken place. Sometimes a re-introduction of the male after a couple days of being separate will trigger a renewed interest in breeding. Good luck.
