    My first Leos...a breeding trio!

    Hi everyone I'm picking up my first Leos tomorrow and it happens to be a proven breeding trio. They include a bell albino Mack snow female, patternless female, and a jungle high yellow male. Both females have already laid a couple clutches this season...and should have another soon. I'm going to keep them in a 20L until I pull the male in Which he will go in a seperate 20L. My question is what do I do with the eggs when they do lay? I don't have an incubator...or money to buy one....is there a home grown method to keeping them the ring humidity and temp? Also for a breeding trio should I have a humid hide for them to lay? I'm stoked...my mom is actually letting me keep these ones! I may start a Leo breeding project....who knows!? Any help would he appreciated...and pics to come tomorrow.

    You def want to have a humid hide/egg laying box for all of your geckos, including your male. I use ziplock containers with sphagnum moss and it works very well. Coco peat could also be used and both are available at PetSmart.

    Congrats on your new trio.

    Here is the trio.

    Jungle high yellow male


    Mack snow tremper albino female


    Las Vegas patternless female


    Colors are 100x brighter in person. The Mack snow just shed so she is looking fantastic. Hope you all like!

    Nice looking trio, congrats on them. Leo's are the best!
    Who'd you get them from? I sort of question what they are...visibly. The last one looks like a Tangerine to me, the first just a high yellow/normal. Jungles don't have banded tails like that. Las Vegas Patty's are butter yellow with white tails that can have some orange but not spots. No telling what they are het for, which may be what the breeder meant?
    Since the females are gravid make sure to have pure calcium out for them (little milk top works great), they are going to need all they can get. Offer them as much food as they will eat too.
    Again, congrats, they are cuties for sure!
