    2nd clutch ever, Het Pied X Het Pied

    I was feeding and misting my crested geckos last night when I had the sudden urge to check for eggs before finishing up with the geckos. To my surprise my most anticipated clutch was laid, ON MY BIRTHDAY no less! I caught her in the middle of laying. I didn't realize this until I took the first two eggs out. I was thinking I can't believe a 2500 gram girl only laid me 2 eggs. I let her be the rest of the night. When I woke up this morning I was pleased to see 8 nice eggs, no slugs. Wish me luck, I hope to see at least one visual piebald in around 60 days.



    Josh Marki gave me this great idea to put in dental floss pick to prevent rolling on the substrate-less method. Great idea, Josh!


    I do have one question. Some bedding was stuck to the eggs. I tried to get as much off as possible, but some just wouldn't come undone. Is this going to be a problem for the eggs, will it result in mold?

    Gorgeous clutch! I bet that was a pretty hard birthday present to follow, haha

    This was the same pairing that I got my first clutch out of. Unfortunately mine all died in the egg, fully developed. No pieds, which I was kind of glad of. Having a pied die on me would have stung a lot more.

    Hopefully you're luckier than I was. Good luck!! Keep us posted :-)

    Congratulations!

    I am still waiting and hoping on my pied to het pairing.

    I wouldn't worry about the bedding or a little mold. These things are a lot tougher than you think.

    That's too bad about your hatchlings. Thanks, luckily all my presents were already given to me by the time I found the eggs. It was a nice surprise gift, that's for sure.
