Gecko egg laying

[Trinity Cernohous]

Alright so a few weeks ago my female bibron gecko started digging in the left back side of the tank. Ever since then, she spends 3/4 of her time just laying in the corner. When I first got them about a month and a half ago now, I cleaned out the tank and found 2 old eggs that were no longer viable....I am just wondering what are the signs that she will be ready to lay eggs, and how long does it normally take? I feed them every other day with crickets and mealies and I make sure that they are being given a calcium and multi vitamin supplement...

Thanks

I'm not sure about Bibrons, but in most species of geckos you can usually tell when a female has laid...she'll look kinda deflated almost.just keep an eye on her, checking her daily. with a little practice, you should be able to tell at a glance if she's laid or not.

I echo what jetfire said. You'll be able to tell...

I watch my leos for digging in their damp hide, as a sign of laying. They can spend up to a whole day at it. But they can also sneak them past me, and lay in a just a couple hours. So I try to check all my damp hides every day. The boxes are semi-transparent, so I can usually see any eggs when I pick them up and look up from the bottom.
