Leopard Geckos not laying eggs

I have two female leopard geckos who from what I can tell they have never ovulated. It is around the time for ovulation and they show no signs of ovulating. I am giving them plenty of calcium and they are the right age. What is the issue?

It's still a bit on the early side for leopard geckos. Have they been exposed to a male? It's possible that in the absence of a male some of them won't ovulate. Sometimes they just take longer. If you've never seen them ovulate even last year if they were old enough, it may be an issue of no male, their ovulation signs may be more subtle, or for some reason they just don't ovulate.

They have been exposed to a male. my one gecko has no interest in the male and the male has no interest in her. The other female whenever she has gone in with the male she bites him and then I separate them. Thanks for the help.

If the female isn't allowing the male to mate with her it's likely that she's not ovulating yet.
