1.Well last night i came home to find my male breeder tailess. No one had messed with him, so kind of stumped as to why he lost it. He is housed with our three breeding female at this time. Last night I noticed them making alot more noise than usual. Almost as if they were not getting along, but it is breeding so i didnt thank much of it. Today I checked on everyone, cleaned cages and was unable to find the males missing tail in the cage. Came home tonight and one of the females was missing a tail. I recently found out that my diet of baby food supplemented with calcium, was no good. I have alreasy ordered a complete CGD and super calcium. Could the loss of tails be from poor diet, or injuries from breeding/fighting. Only one male in the cage and these four geckos have been together for over a year minus there cool off/seperation period.
2. My wife also says she read somewhere that a guy only housed his males with females for a few months and they would continue to lay eggs the entire season. Is this true or is the male needed, after each egg lay, to fertalize the up coming eggs.
