I don't want to take any chances, so I'd say the ABSOLUTE earliest you can breed is 1 year a piece, at atleast 35-ish grams.

Hey

When I first got into this stuff I was all about breeding and now ive realized how foolish I was simply because yes a female or male will breed in 35gram range should they no. Its no healthy your talkin figures like this a gecko that from neck to vent is only 2-3 inches and stickin two 1 1/2inch eggs in there not good stuff I reccomend breeding at 55 grams Yes the male could breed at 90 days with no trobling effects but the female sure couldnt she would likely deprive her body of nutrients and die or become egg bound a gecko that weighs 30-40 grams sockin out ten eggs is puttin out 25 grams work of eggs at least bad stuff.

With that being said dont breed young trust me its not worth it weight 3 or 4 months weigh them and if a good weight the breed

I've bred a male at 8 months, he was aggressive enough that the bigger female didn't hurt him at all
she wanted it lol

but yeah, minimum for a female should be at least 1 year, preferably 18 months, 40 grams.
40 grams isn't really that big, my 2 adult females are 65 & 75 grams each, and I don't really consider them big

it pays off to wait a few months when it risks the health of your leos
