GBBs tapping to each other, safe to mate?

My female molted a few weeks ago and emerged from her hide a couple days ago. I misted her enclosure once a few days ago. I was going to do the few weeks of occasional misting followed by an influx of available food to mimic breeding time. However she seems ready to go as is. Tonight I just witnessed her walking out of her hide and tapping away. My male in an enclosure next to hers began tapping about ten minutes later. They are intermittently tapping back and forth. Should I mate them soon or go ahead and continue with my original plan? If she thinks it's time to breed now, I'd hate to confuse and stress her by mimicking the end of the rainy season. Thanks!

If she isn’t fed quite a bit ahead of time the male will almost surely end up as a snack.
