My female leopard gecko is just a little over a year old now and this will be her third clutch. The first clutch was laid in the sand and they didnt survive and her second clutch was laid in vermiculite and 1 out 2 eggs is fertile. Now she has had eggs inside of her for over 3 weeks and will not lay them. She has stopped eating for the past 5 days and is constantly digging in the sand and vermiculite but will just not lay. The moisture of the vermiculite and the temperature of the tank if perfect as well so I don't know what could be wrong. If anyone could offer any advice or information as to whats going on or what I should do, please let me know. Thank you to everyone!
what i would do is get a poly box and fill a cup with vermiculite and place that in the poly box. i would also put a bowl of water in there and a thermometer keep temp at around 82 if you want a female or 88 if you want a male. For the hating i would attach a heat mat onto the lid of the poly box and plug that into a matstat (heat mat thermostat) and set the temp to what you want. this works for me and i have roughly a 90% succes rate hope this helped
I would just use a tupperware box filled about 2/3 full of perlite or vermiculite. Make sure the perlite or vermiculite is just damp and not wet when you put the eggs in. btw ur humidity is way too high. And make sure when you buy ur vermiculite or perlite you dont buy the miracle gro kind. The kind has fertilizer in it and will help mold grow in your box (especially if the humidity is 90% O.o) You can also just keep the incubator in a warm spot with a thermometer inside of it to check the temperature. If you want a female, keep it around 80-82 degrees F. If you want a mixed sex keep it around 85 F. If you want a male keep it around 88 F. I wouldnt recomend buying a hovabator unless your leos are laying eggs like crazy. Personally, i think buying an incuator is a waste of money. I hope this helps :D
