I just wanted to thank everyone (esp. Mark and Gert) who helped me when I was trying to sex my Bibrons geckos. Not long after I posted the original message I went out and got a juvenile that I "thought" was a male. I figured I was wrong as the white spots slowly disappeared so I left the group alone and "forgot" them. While cleaning the cage a few weeks ago, I found a bunch of infertile eggs as I always do and to my surprise, a pair of viables! I busted one open, figuring it was infertile, but it had a tiny spot of blood in it. That's how I knew. Now this new "male" has bright white spots (but none of the other male characteristics). About a week later I found another clutch of two. I have them incubating in the Hovabator with my lone spider gecko egg at 84-86'F. I haven't put any water in there; I'm not sure if I'm supposed to (I've never incubated in the Hovabator before and I've never had eggs last this long). Humidity is 40%. They all have vessels - the bibrons are VERY veiny. It will be 3 more days until the spider egg is 2 weeks old to notice the "pink" colour Stacy says to look for. I don't know why she only produces one egg clutches. It's been this way for the last 5 or so clutches.
 
Anyway, I'm rambling as I always do. I just wanted to thank everyone. You can comment on my setup if you think it's wrong. Maybe you can tell me why the spider only produces one egg clutches.
