very young pregnant female--HELP!

[Khrysty]

I have a 5 or 6 month female leopard gecko that is obviously carrying eggs. She weighs 51.8g at the moment and measures 7 inches long. I left her at home with my sister for a few weeks along with my adult male and female breeding pair who I keep on the other side of the room. She swears she never put our male in with the little female, but I have a hard time believing that, seeing as there are very noticeable eggs in my little leo's belly.

Where do I go from here? How do I keep her comfortable and happy--do I treat her the same as an adult pregnant leo? Will this stunt her growth?

yep treat her as any adult pregnant leo, shes not way too small so if she was to lay them i think she would be fine. I don't think it should affect her growth. Also some young leos ovulate and develop eggs without males being present. I would give her a lay box with bed a beast type bedding in it and give her extra calcium so she can pass the eggs better if she does lay them. I hope all goes well.

i would treat this the same as any leo carrying eggs. I have a close related issue to this but i have 5 females ovulating right now. They all started at a different time and have gone off food for about 3-5 days but they are slowly but surely coming back to food.
