Odd news.

Someone on this forum said my leo looked like she had worms, looked like she was male and told me she looked too dark (all from a side picture and a pic of her walking away) So, last night I took her to the pet store to show her off to some people I know there and have her sexed. My friend who works there said she looked really healthy, great color, and she's female..... AND she has eggs! He pointed them out to me, you can see them inside of her belly. She was hatched at the beginning of the summer, I got her in August and she has never had a mate. I know this could happen, but not this young, and not without previous stimulation.

Nobody can tell from a picture whether a gecko has worms or not! Unless is a picture of the stool and you can see worms in it. Dark and bright coloring doesn't mean a thing either, it's the mood of the gecko, which changes all the time. If she was born this summer, I doubt she's gravid. Maybe your friend was seeing things that aren't there.

Well sit right down my wicked son
And let me tell you a story
About the boy who fell from glory
And how he was a wicked son

This ain't no holiday
But it always turns out this way
Here I am with my hand

He took his sister from his head
And then painted her on the sheets
And then rolled her up in grass and trees
And they kissed 'till they were dead

This ain't no holiday
But it always turns out this way
Here I am, with my hand

Well sit right down my evil son
And let me tell you a story
About the boy who fell from glory
And how he was a wicked son

This ain't no holiday
But it always turns out this way
Here I am, with my hand

This ain't no holiday
But it always turns out this way
Here I am, with my hand

Leopard geckos have light colored fat deposits in their abdomen that can be mistaken for eggs. Female leos are not sexually mature until they reach 10 months of age, so if she's a youngster my bet is on the fat deposits.
