Aggression

[African_Fever]

I've had a pair of motoros growing up together for the last year, and the male's claspers have developed over the last 2 months or so. They're both about 10", with the female slightly larger (maybe 1" disc) and thicker . Got home yesterday after being gone for a week (parents feeding the rays), and the female's disc is now getting chewed by the male - is this just the beginning of aggression due to the male maturing, or is it possibly the actual start of breeding behaviour?

TIA!

Probley the beging of breeding up some one that has bread can tell u for sure but if the claspers are developed it is posible to breed

seems like he's ready to go.... just depends on her... keep an eye on it though if shes not ready he could mess her up

My pair were a similar size when they went into mating mode recently.
