Hello ,so i use a moist paper towel in a Tupperware with a hole in it. I put my moist hide on the cool side. I have 7 year old female leopard gecko housing alone. i use paper towels as substrate as well. Anyways i went to go clean out the moist box and noticed there were these little clear crystal type things bunched up and also scattered on the sides and the top of the moist hide area. They almost resemble uncooked white rice but the size of a good sized sliver. All about the same size and shape. The only time i have ever seen anything like it is from kingworms, maybe poop or something I'm not shure. The problemvis i dont feed her any kingworms or mealworms. So my question is has anyone seen or experianced this before ? If so what the heck are they? Please help cuz I'm highly confused to what would cause this. Thanku!!!

Im not to shure what the first replys video was of? I do know that dont move, but unfourtunitly I got rid of them. As for the second reply , I do feed two crickets a night. I leave them overnight with a little pile of wheat grass to munch on. Anyways do you think they could have layed eggs? I do not breed crickets but im shure that doesnt stop them. Do they usually breed in moist places?

Yes the eggs have to stay moist to hatch. I have some eggs in the incubator right now fingers crossed!

yes they will breed regardless. its the fat ones with the pointy black stick thing (Ovipositor) coming out the back that are the egg laying females.
i just throw them away, iv had them hatch in a crestie tank before and they are a pain in the arse.
