my female jaguar is about 15 inches long, i got her as a mate for my male jaguar whose a little smaller then her. they did the whole courting thing the ended u paring off, clearing rocks and everything. started to swell, u could tell shes build up eggs but she never lays them. they rub constantly, they'll move rocks real heave for about a week or so then stop for a couple days. it seemed to me as if they were going through the whole mating process without laying eggs, so i put a plate in there about a week ago and there back at it again. any thoughts?

I bred these fella's before and this is what i need, added a smooth rock in the middle of the tank. Bump up the temp and covered the tank with a blanket.

I fed them only once a day and made sure they dont know that im there. With in 2 weeks they started spawned. At the beginning they didnt do much until i put a blanket around the tank. It works :) hope that helps.
 
I simply built my Jags a "love shack", and added some convicts for them to harrass. They breed all the time now.

Those that breed jags, how much do they sell for and does size matter for the cost?

the bigger the better fry 0.5-1.5" usually sell for a dollar from a store and 25-50 cents to a store but they do have big spawns I would guess mine usually do 300+
