Generally both the Tokay & Pictus will breed and lay eggs year round. Especially the Pictus Geckos.
The good thing about the Pictus Geckos is their size (5-6 inches for adults). You can put 1 male and 3-4 females in a 20gal long tank and your set. A friend of mine told me he used to get 2 eggs a month out of his females, 12 months out of the year. And he had 2 breeder tanks setup like what I described above. They only sell for about 20-3O bucks each. They are also good to barter with at pet shops. LLL Reptile and California Zoological Supply (CalZoo) are always wanting to buy "surplus" herps.
My thought is, IF, I can get them going good and sell them, it sure would help pay for snake food. ----- 2.5 dumerils boas, 1.1 albino burmese python, 0.1 normal ball python, 0.2 bearded dragons, 1.0 german giant bearded dragon & 0.0.1 sulcata tortoise
