Hi, i have 2 Hermann tortoises, 1 female & 1 male. The males behavior as changed & I'm wondering is it because he has come into maturity. He keeps trying to mount the female who is not interested & as shes smaller & alot faster she runs away from him. He's now started chasing her to nip her legs & yesterday he was very forceful trying also to bite her face. I split them in different enclosures now. Also he's started to charge which is also something new.They have always been together from us getting them from a friend who no longer wanted them & its upset me they have to be apart as they always snuggle up to each other at bed time. I'm wondering would they ever be able to be put together again or will this be an ongoing issue??
