Gotta love staying up late for this :)
I love seeing my geckos lay eggs, this female was really calm when I checked on her as she was finishing up. Gotta be one of the coolest things when breeding (aside from hatching) to see!
Here are some shots of my favorite gecko Nabby, laying her eggs!

Here is my incubator, there are 3 more eggs in there now, or jelly beans as we like to call them lol

I'm aiming to get Nabby's stocky body and wide head with Spike's (the male's) exagerated spikes and "fur" going down the back.

Thanks, I'm getting really excited since the first clutch is getting close to day 45 and the perfect looking egg is looking very filled up inside when I candle it!

Any updates?? Nice cresties....

Re: Gotta love staying up late for this :)
Just a quick FYI on the little one that hatched out early and is not growing. It may grow much slower than its clutchmate due to the early hatching. I have had a few cresteds that hatched early or were smaller than normal on hatching (last clutches of the season from a female are sometimes a bit smaller than normal) that seemed to grow very slowly at first. Eventually they caught up and were just fine, but it did take some time.

congrats on the eggs
