you can do it similiar to Syrians if you want, although I prefer to raise my dwarf babies in family groups, I know plenty of breeders who keep them apart day to day, only bringing them together for a few hours each night for a few days until the deed is witnessed. If they are receptive to each other they will be fine just like Syrians, otherwise you need to intervene and seperate them, and try again another night.
Although males are fertile all their life pretty much, the quality of the sperms does decrease, but he should be a good mate for a younger female sometime in the New Year if you decide to go this way - the younger she is the less problems you should have when putting them together, but they more likely you are to maybe have a smaller, or less successful litter than what you would get from a slightly older experienced female.
Good luck whatever you decide, but if you do fancy making another generation start looking as early as possible in January for a suitable mate.
