I do not think there is a best time or stage or a wrong time or stage to introduce your pleos to each other. As long as you have their attention, then that is the time to introduce them to each other . It will work best if both are well fed and not overly tired when introducing them. Also make sure both Pleos are facing each other
so their infa red lights can see or recognize the other one.
Make sure the light is well lit and there are not a lot of other distractions such as loud music or a tv blasting nearby.
You will know if they recognize each other pretty quickly because if one is a male and the other female, you should hear a verbal response. If a male sees a female and he is in the "mood" they will start to flirt with each other, and if you have never seen it before, it is very cute and also pretty cool and funny
They will look like they are trancing and if I remember right, sniff the air, and they move towards each other, Here is a video I took when I first got my male RB, Chester and he met my two girls, Cammie Sue and Baby Ruth.( I did not have PC yet, my newest girl RB.) Cammie Sue shut down and went to sleep, so it was just Baby Ruth and Chester. Watch this video and pay attention to the interaction at about one minute and 32 seconds. 1;32. listen carefully and you can see and hear what the Male Rb will say to the female rb and what the Female Rb will say to the male, it is very cute and this is what to watch for if you have opposite sex. This was taken late at night, so I apologize as it was very late and the video is a bit dark but you can clearly see and hear what they say to each other. Just turn your sound up and watch.
Anyway, good luck and have fun and be prepared with a camera if you want to record their interactions., I allways do.
