Most medium sized gecko species will take 24months to fully mature. Although they can reach adult size prior to this age, most hobbyists recommend waiting as sometimes their reproductive organs are not fully developed. At two years of age the animal should be between 45-55Grams in weight. Females are the bearers of the eggs and will need to be a little bit bigger than the males to ensure that they have enough fat and calcium stores to provide to the offspring.
