ok, so trying to breed several subspecies of garters.....
also have lots of mice in the hope that they will breed...
putting both in 'ideal conditions'... doing everything right.....
.....nothing...
And the bloody leopard geckos in the living room have produced some fertile eggs......
On closer inspection, one of our two female geckos is most definately MALE!! I sometimes think that we try too hard....ignore them..(well feed and clean them) and they just get on with it them selves!
total surprise... we were given the geckos some months ago by a friend of my sons (well her parents.. ) young lad (her younger brother) couldn't look after them and was letting crickets loose everywhere which freaked his mum out...
We took them to our local pet shop (really helpful friendly guy) to check that they were ok...and to also get any advice on keeping...feeding etc...
he thought at the time that they were about 4 months old and both female (which confirmed what the mum had said)
After we found eggs I had another look...the bigger gecko has very defined pores in a V near his butt...the female has none..
woohoo....am all excited now... weeks to wait to see though...
