You can attempt feeding, but its very likely they will refuse now that they have started breeding.
Oh... and you should probably seperate them during the rest of the year... that might help your breeding efforts along. 7 Years 'eh? Get them both their own enclosures... get the temps stable during the regular times of the year... and then a night time drop in temps will help make them realize its time to breed.
Good luck with your breeding.....
