Ginger just laid her second clutch, they have bullseyes, GREAT! However just like the first clutch she laid them on the paper towels, and was laying near them. I'm very certain they are fertile as so were the last clutch. However, the last clutch I found too late, she had crushed one, the shell had started to dry out on the other, and half way through the incubation the minor cracks became major cracks and started leaking, ultimately collapsing and molding, found dead baby inside.
Now this clutch, I found this morning, I found in time as they were still somewhat warm and moist to the touch and easy to remove from the paper towels and from each other. Great, these two should hatch. However I think I was just lucky this time, that I found them right after she laid them. How on earth do you train a gecko that won't use her lay box to use it? She does use the lay box, but only for her moist hide. I use coco fibers in it, I'm wondering if I should try moss for her to lay her eggs in, and maybe she'll lay in there. I have never had this problem with fertile eggs before. Arrrrggggggg I want Bell Babies!!!!!
