Question:

leopard gecko eggs help?

i have a baby gecko - not older than a few months, and she just layed eggs, like an hour ago D:i made an incubator a while back, and i dont know why but i just turned it on today (lucky eh)its basically a lunchbox with a cricket box with damp vermiculite inside. its at about 85F now.lt;since my gecko is only a baby herself, i‘m aware they probably arent fertile, but stillgt;she layed them on top of the laying box i gave her, but one of the eggs was stuck tight onto it - anything i can do about this?(i wasnt sure, so i cut out that bit of the lid with the egg and and put that in the incubator)nowhere i looked says anything about the humidity in the incubator, so does anyone have any ideas about that too?and is there anything i can feed my little gecko to get her back upto strength - she‘s too small for pinkies.Thanks :)

Answer:

try crickets powdered with calcium. A lot of geckos have low calcium so this is necessary. Why are you breeding her this young if she's too little to have babies? it's not healthy. and you probably won't be able to get the stuck egg off without breaking it. You should keep the eggs in an air tight container and only air it once or twice a month. Don't keep the heat that high, try around 76 degrees and keep it constant! it's hard to keep gecko eggs, so good luck and research it next time.

cut the the laying box and and put the piece with the egg in incubator, humity should be high at least 80-100 would be good, you can feed her wax worms or butter worms, but not too much they are real fatty, i really dont think the eggs are fertile being the leo is sooo young, was it with a male, because they can lay eggs with out the malealso shake the worms crickets with calcium powder she will need it and helps with the recovering time from laying eggs
