Well, I just threw that out as possibly relevent. It may not be. If you
think about it, though, I would imagine that laying a clutch is a strain on
a gecko's physiological assets. I think the problem may be when a lot of
eggs are laid and/or repeatedly in a relatively short period of time.
Perhaps in the wild such geckos are more able to replenish their stocks of
vitamins, minerals, proteins, whatever.
