Hey Everyone,

This year, my female leo laid some infertile eggs again as she did a few year back. She has never been with a male her whole life. Last time this happened, she laid only 1 clutch of 2 eggs. This year, she laid 1 clutch of 2 again and then a few weeks later, a third egg, but never a fourth. Is this normal? Isn't the clutch size for leopard geckos always or at least the majority of the time 2 eggs per clutch? I candled her sometime after she laid the third egg and it didn't appear that she was still gravid. She is eating very well right now and also defecating on a regular basis, so I doubt there is any cause for concern, but I have heard of geckos becoming egg-bound. Any feedback, opinions, or experiences would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks everyone.
