So I've been breeding my female normal with my super hypo tangerine for a year now. She has laid five clutches so far, but only two eggs happened to be fertile... Is this a genetic problem? Now she is losing weight rather quickly. I was able to raise her back to 39 grams, but I'm still highly concerned. What extra can I do besides supplementing all of her food? Thanks!

Infertile eggs:
It could be that the male is sterile. It could be the female. I've had geckos not lay fertile eggs for 2 seasons. If that happens, they get retired.

Losing weight: If feeding her all the nutritious food she can eat isn't doing it, I'd recommend a vet visit, unless she is regaining most of her weight between clutches.
