When my S. macrolepsis laid an egg in the enclosure it was so small I left it there and it hatched. I'd recommend consulting with people who have actually been more involved and successful in breeding as to what to do. Some geckos lay eggs even if they haven't been with a male and some who are...

Sounds like a good plan. Aliza

It seems as if you're doing some interesting work with morph calculation! I don't have the energy right now to try it out, but I'll save the website. Aliza

The adults look to be in great shape. The little one is the most interesting looking in my opinion. It would have to grow up before going into a full-sized enclosure. Of the 2 adults, I think the second one looks more interesting, especially since it still has its tail. I have an almost 19...

I'm pretty sure he's what you can call a "high yellow" meaning that he has few enough spots that the yellow stands out. I think I can see signs that when he hatched he was banded and not striped. Aliza

That's why we swab them because they can have the parasite and still be healthy. All my geckos look and act healthy but they are all positive. Aliza

Yes, it is, thanks. Aliza

Find a reptile vet, make an appointment and have her tested for cryptosporidiosis and for other parasites as well. Since you just got her, if she is positive for crypto, I highly recommend that you have her put down. Crypto is a highly contagious and ultimately fatal parasite. I'm not saying...

It's working in Korean but doesn't seem to be working so well in English. If I make a choice in Korean and then switch to English it seems to be doing something, but I don't find it really usable in English. Aliza

I think the mid 60's is fine for a gargoyle. That's probably about what it is in my house in the winter. An easy way to provide a little heat if you're really worried and especially if you have plants in the enclosure is to use an incandescent light (as opposed to a compact florescent or LED)...

I don't use lights with my leopard geckos (except for ambient light). They are fine with the supplements. My point was, if you're providing the calcium and D3 then you don't have to worry about the output of the lights and they would be useful for your viewing pleasure and for the leopard geckos...

Have you checked out faunaclassifieds.com and morph market? Aliza

It's not going to hurt them. The question is whether it will provide adequate vitamin D3. Are you able to get calcium and D3 supplements? If so, use the light, use the supplements and everything should be fine. Aliza

Nacho looks really content in that picture. Aliza

Welcome! I have kept Sphaerodactylus sputator and Sphaerodactylus macrolepis in the past and currently have a L. williamsi (electric blue). I love those little guys. The S. sputator was pretty hermetic and I never really saw it, but the other 2 species are very curious and responsive. Aliza
