never had this happen

[gecko breeder]

i have 2 visible ovulating females that jsut are not being receptive idk why everytime the male goes to do his thing the females fight back but im telling you they are clearly ovulating its strange

 

[Dog Shrink]

First time females? Proven? Maybe they're prudes... joking of course... Maybe they're not ovulated enough yet to be receptive. Is there such a thing???

 

[gecko breeder]

umm im not sure bout that, but there not proven to me but the person i got then from said there 3 years old

 

[Dog Shrink]

Yes but they could be three years old and never been bred. Do you know if they've ever been successfully bred?

 

[gecko breeder]

i mean he said they have laid eggs before but he never succesfully hached them so im guessing they were infertial he had a male with them at all time for 3 years thoe, but even first year breeders i use to have bred great once i saw they were ovulating idk whats wrong

 

[Dog Shrink]

Is the male you're trying to breed them with the same male they lived with for 3 years or a different male?

sometimes females prefer to wait til night, they feel safer. Some geckos dont want people watching haha.

 

[gecko breeder]

its a different male

Keep him in over night if he isnt too aggressive and needs to be watched. Theyll get it on. Pretty late in the season good luck.
