Gravid gecko?

[scotty]

So my female leo is now gravid (i know this because i watched them copulate). It has been about a week and she has only gained about 4 grams. Is this normal? Is there any way to tell when she will lay her eggs besides when she has her pre lay shed and starts digging round the cage? Here are some pics of the eggs.

It's always been a mystery to me how much they do or don't gain and how long it takes to lay the eggs. Usually the few days before the eggs are laid, they are very easy to see. Some females seem uncomfortable and go off feed, others don't act any differently. Good luck.

thank you. yea i have seen that it is a mystery and the only way to really tell is when she sheds. and i am hoping that she will lay in the next week because she just shed and idk whether or not it will be her prey lay shed
