While Pygmy and Nigerians are supposed to be year-round breeders, their heats are often much stronger in the fall. She may simply have not had a heat strong enough to make him interested her or allow him time to get the job done.
I would separate them for a while, since living with him may also prevent her from being as interested in him and try again.
You could always use a buck rag to find out when/if she's in heat while they're separated :)
