seeing eggs through belly.
Can anyone supply a picture of the leo whos gravid? I took a couple pics of my female who i *think* might be gravid..
the pair have been together since before I got them.. female laid her last clutch approx 4wks ago. At what point should I pull her out (if ever) to put her by herself to lay? She looks a bit thick in her midsection too. She currently weighs 57g (she was 48g the day we got her)
((pics coming soon))

that pic was taken from the website listed.. it does make penelope look gravid IMO, but anyone have any other comments or thoughts?
Re: seeing eggs through belly.
well I don't know anything about geckos or breeding but it definitely looks like eggs to me! she's gorgeous, BTW!
Re: seeing eggs through belly.
:) Thanks Melanie.. I thought it looked like she might have eggs in there too... but then again this will be our first breeding of leos (she has had one prior clutch that went bad, for whatever reason) i have been playing around with google images tonight and looking around... :gj: (((crosses fingers)))
and the would be proud poppa :)

I didnt think for the life of me i could enjoy another reptile as much as my balls and boa... and with the leos i really have!!!
Re: seeing eggs through belly.
Ashley I haven't bred leos, but from the gravid females I have seen, and pictures of gravid females I would say she does have eggs. Especially if she has gained that much weight.
They are cute, I really miss mine.
I would also say she is a normal/high yellow. Normals usually have a lot more spots on the legs and throughout the body.
I noticed a lot of wild caught/normal looking animals have tons of pots, where as the normal leos now have less.

She's def gonna be a momma! I don't have ANY of my leo pictures on this new computer, otherwise I could post some like that up. But she's definitely carrying.
Congrats!!:gj:

ok, i played with the color levels to maybe get a better look... and this is what i got. I have also considered taking some pics of Cruz to be able to tell the difference.
We should so create a sticky for breeding!!!
