Beardies

Hatchling beardies seem to keep popping up on the for sale section and this is making me wonder why my beardies arnt breeding. They are all old enough to breed. I have them set at 35 degrees celcius. The male and female seem interested in each other (head bobbing and arm waving at each other). Definatly are male and female. I cooled them with no heating during winter. Can anyone think of any reasons why they aren't breeding? Do they have to be fed right up and be fat to breed? Thanks hope you can help, Paul
