RE: [Gecko] leopard gecko eggs

[Mark Ernst]

Hi Jill,   If the eggs are not burrowed and layed at the place where she poops there is a change the egg is infertile. At least that is our experience. Maybe someone else had other experiences?  Sometimes eggs are infertile if it is the first time for a female to lay eggs. At this moment we have a young Teratoscincus keyserlingi female that has never seen a male in her live yet and she carries 2 big eggs now. I don’t know why she does this. It cost a lot of energy and it will not have any effect. Those eggs will be infertile. (but I’ll put them in the incubator anyway, just to be sure J ) Regards, Isabelle   -----Oorspronkelijk bericht----- Van: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Verzonden: zaterdag 13 april 2002 19:31 Aan: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Onderwerp: Re: [Gecko] leopard gecko eggs   Isabelle,      She layed this one where she poops.  Do you think the other egg is infertile?  She didn't burrow the other one either, and she layed it around her poop area.  If the eggs are infertile, does that mean that she made the eggs on her own, and she never mated with him?  Or could they have mated and she created the egg from that but it's still infertile?  Is that possible?  Thanks.
