Hello!

Last night we put in one male with two of our females; all are proven breeders. This is my first time breeding leopard geckos, and I had a few questions:

1) One of the females has eggs that are already developed. Is it too late to breed her? Should we do the breeding before we can see her eggs?
2) This morning, we did see a small bite mark on the back of her neck, so we think the breeding was successful. Should we now take the female out of the cage and put her back in her own cage to lay the eggs in the vermiculite-filled deli cup? (They live in their own cages; we are planning on just putting them together to breed).
3) How long will/should it take for her to lay the eggs?
4) We don't really see the eggs in the other female but she was doing some tail wagging. Again, I've read this is breeding season, so it is appropriate to put the males and females together before we see egg development?

Thank you so much! I appreciate all of the help we've received from this forum.
