Breeders Note: It is rare, but it does happen occasionally that I have a male that is terrified of a specific female and will totally panic when placed in the same enclosure.
In my case: This happened the other day. I double/triple checked their genders to confirm they are not two males.
Innately females will be larger than males at full maturity so I don't think size discrepancy between the two is the problem.
Luckily I have two males with the same genetics so I rotated the second male into the breed scheme (without issue).
It is so odd though...
Too bad you can't ask him.
