Breeding season

[Newbe]

Hi

I have one male with three females, they have lived together for some weeks now. I know it's near the end of breeding season, however I have read that some breeders get hatchlings out of season.

I want to stick to the natural order, will they automatically breed or shall I take the male out?

Also, this may sound like a silly question but i'm new, do they need an egg laying box to start the breeding process?

Are there any no no's to breeding such as a normal gecko with a murphy patternless etc?

Advice please, i have read and read pages of advice but with all the gargon i'm confused. I have a good set up, spare vivs, heat sources, incubator will be purchased asap, time and money.

Be nice THank you x

Technically, they don't have to go in a seasonal pattern under captivity. As long as the female is ovulating, it's ok to breed.

I would take the male out until the females ovulate.

No, but I would put one in anyways. Make sure it is always a little humid.

They are not genetically incompatible, but with that pairing you are going to get 100% Normals het Patternless. Not many people are going to want them. Just make sure you have enough resources to house, feed, and sell the babies.


Good luck!

Thank you for the advice, I will take the male out. Out of interest what about the Murphy with Super Hypo Tangerine Carrot Tail Baldy? what will I get then?

You would get varying degrees of Hypo Tangerine all het for Murphy Patternless.
