kurma Aug 24, 2003 10:28 PM

Well both of my 32-37 gram females seem gravid pretty puggy and the smaller one I lok at today and underneat it looks like two eggs. So ofcourse I haven't bred them ut if they are going threw the trouble of making the eggs shouldn't I just breed them?

Leopard geckos should be at least 45 grams before breeding, preferably 50 grams. Making eggs when they are still growing is too hard on their little bodies. The babies and the moms will be healthier in the end if you wait.
