How Long Before Laying?

[DippyDazza]

My female was mated about 2 weeks ago now, and she is currently carrying eggs. I was just wondering how long it will be until she lays. She is spending all of her time in her laying box, is this a good or a bad sign?

Im getting a bit over excited waiting for the eggs lol, im so impatient. I have the incubator all set up and raring to go, just need to get a thermometer to check the temperature properly.

Any advice you can give would be greatly appreciated.

So far, I've had them take 2 weeks to just over a month to lay. I actually received a gecko who layed eggs a few weeks after I got her. I was told that she hadn't been kept with a male for over 2 months, but the eggs were fertile. I don't believe she layed any before I got her. But I think the average is 2-4 weeks. Good luck!

Thank you Kristi! I'll just have to learn some patience *Grits his teeth and waits*

I have three females all in one tank, one female lays every 2 weeks, while the others have layed every 4 weeks.

It is anywhere from 2 weeks - 5 weeks. I had to wait 5 1/2 weeks once.

I've got one female that lays about ever 2 1/2 weeks, and another who will lay every 5 1/2 weeks... it really just depends. When they start digging and come off their food, you know they are most likely ready to lay.
