Re: help with gecko eggs!
ok id like to make a few points here. #1...i noticed LAST NIGHT around 9 that the female was not doing very well. during the day and the day before she was fine. i was not sure if she had injested something or what, so i put her in the tank with the eggs until the morning when i could take her to the vet and figure out what was going on and i did not want the other geckos to stress her out. at the moment the only tank I had prepared was the tank that the eggs were sitting in until i got in my hatchrite.
#2 im new to breeding them, not the animals themselves. ive had 3 cresteds for 2 years, each were bought as babies. i did not want to breed the three I had but i am studying to be a zoologist, and my professor suggested I study genetics and I thought cresteds would be perfect for it, so I bought a few breeders, read up on what to do, talked to the breeder that I recieved them from, and presto, there you go... i messed up a few times but im getting the hang of it. i really just came on here for a little help, I am still learning. I did not expect for her to dig them up, i just wanted to know if there was a way to tell which side was which. i was uneasy about marking the eggs because when I marked the other one, it caved in completely where I marked it and the egg began to grow mold after two weeks. someone said to candle them, and I thank you for that. im sorry if i was not clear in my first post about the situation, it was jumbled because i was in a rush and worried not only about the eggs but the little girl. i do not keep my geckos with the eggs, i know the dangers of this. ive owned different reptiles my entire life and know how testy they can be with anything smaller then themselves and how they enjoy to eat the smaller animals. i really just wanted help with this situation. thank you to the ones who gave me a clear answer, such as the candling.
