I have had some eggs for about 6 weeks and they are starting to grow mold. What should I do!?

That is a very bad sign at that age. They are probably not fertile or something has gone wrong. I would leave them alone at this point and see what happends. How are you incubating them? Is this your gecko's first clutch?

Gecko-King is right. You can try GoldBond Foot powder thought to try and kill the mold. Just sprinkle it lightly on the trouble spot. If the egg is fertile hopefully it will make it. Try candling it to see. Either way never throw out and egg until it is all shriveled up, because you never know.
