1 1/2 month brake is a bit short, you want to make sure she is around 40 grams or even over that. eating well,walking around, and acting like herself, even with all that said, i would still wait a few months to re-breed. its up to you though.

I agree with Heather. IMO I would give her a little more of a break. 6 clutches is a decent number of eggs.

I usually only breed my females once a season if they lay ( this is only because I breed on a very small scale and do not wish to have alot of hatchlings each season) but I have read that alot of breeders let theres rest about 2-3 months in between breeding and re-breeding. I would say that if she is eating good and acting normal, Id probably wait 2 months then go ahead and rebreed.

if she is already over 40 grams i give it another 2 months brake, if she isnt 40 wait till then and then some more. good luck ( ;

its common for a gecko to do that off and on, so no worries there if she is way over and acting ok check her to see if she is ovulating, (look for pink dots one upper left side one Lower right side) if she is you could breed her, If not stick to just normal care,

if you see Bigger circles (larger then a Dime size) she is getting ready to lay *duds* i would wait after she lays these, check the Weight, and think about breeding.

I'd say give her a break lol. That's alot on a body to handle. Give her a pinky or some wax worms and let her bulk back up before breeding. I've never bred leos before but with other animals I always gave a good amount of time for a break and to get the weight back up..
