Hilda's definitely female

[Kristi23]

We came home from a party today to find two big eggs in Hilda's cage. They're obviously not fertile (but they are hard) since she's never been with a male. I had no idea she was even gravid. It was a big shock to find them. I'm hoping those are all that she'll lay. I thought it was weird that she hasn't been eating quite as much lately, but she did eat two nights ago. It's so weird having female reptiles.

aww!!
I hope to find out some of mine are females!

I would be tempted to place some calcium in her cage for a bit just because laying eggs can be taxing on their calcium supply.

I hope that Pablo is a boy and that Crackity Jones is a boy, but the others can turn out to be girls.
In fact, as odd as it sounds that I want my chewie to be a boy, it's even odder that I want my gargoyle gecko to be a girl.

My girl laid eggs for months before I bred her. I just got used to having bad eggs. I still incubated them for a while, but eventually, I started throwing them away.

Cool! She should be good and hungry after laying a clutch...

They wont lick from a calcium dish. You are better off feeding them Crix or Roaches dusted with calcium when they are breeding. I give my breeders dusted bugs once per week + CGD 2-3 times per week.

I occasionally spike my girl's CGD with a little extra calcium.

Ah.
Some breeders do place a dish of calcium in their crestie's cage after she's done laying, though.
I, too, thought they wouldn't lick from it.
Some do, I guess.

We tried giving her roaches last night, but she wasn't really interested. Hopefully she'll eat some tonight. She never even came out from her hide last night like she normally does. My poor girl. (Hilda is my leachie btw, I forgot to mention that.)
