well i have been checking my layboxes daily but I guess koda buried hers in there and i didnt find them until today when i cleaned them out and they were very dented and caked in the coconut so i cant even tell if they were good , they could have been laid anytime in the past 3-4 days. i didnt think they buried them im used to bonnie who just lays them ontop. I threw them in the incubator to see if they pop back up but not to hopeful. not looking like a good start to this 1st season :(

Sorry things aren't going well. During this season, I not only check the layboxes from the top and the bottom (mine are plastic) but I also check the geckos' bellies and if anything looks different, I go digging a little more seriously in the lay box. I hope things go better with the next clutch.

another suggestion is if she has been laying try to keep track of when she last laid eggs so u can determine roughly when shes laying again.Also keep checking stomachs or bulges.i can see the eggs from the sides.I write all my info in a journal.I have 6 gravid females right now so I write everything down.I know exactly to the day when each female will lay.Its like clock work

Dont beat yourself up over it.Write down the date she laid and start checking for eggs starting on the 10th day and on and keep track.we're always learning
