These are the preliminary signs to separate the geckos. During breeding season, males will grab onto the females neck during intercourse in order to hold her in place. Sometimes a male can leave behind wounds. If the female has lost interest in food and is hiding away more so than usual, she may be stressed from the males aggressive behaviour. Sometimes even during breeding season, females will have to be separated to ensure her health isn't put at risk. If two males are housed together, these bite marks will stay consistent until one slowly passes.

What does it mean when leopard gecko digs in the cage?

Well, you're probably in for a surprise. In other words, your leopard gecko is pregnant! If you've never had any other leopard geckos in the aquarium (or wherever you keep it) then the egg will never hatch, it's just a cycle some leopard geckos go through, and is not uncommon. No need to worry, just remove the egg; but if you have had another leopard gecko in the cage before, it was probably a male, even if you thought otherwise, as this can be tricky. If this is so, you should put a small container of fresh aspen shavings or the moss you can get, but not the sand (this can be hazardous for baby leopard geckos). Hopefully, your gecko will lay her egg in the container, and you should remove that and place them in an incubator (directions at http://www.albeysreptiles.com/incubate-eggs.htm). Continue to follow the directions at that website, and you will find what you need. If the eggs are not in the container, carefullyremove the eggs by taking all that is under it and gently placing it in the container. Try to incubate them, following the directions given earlier, but it will normally be too late by then. Hope your hatchlings-to-be will do well!


Is paint dangerous to leopard geckos?

The only Gecko that i would call dangerous is a Tokay gecko, they can be rather mean and have been known to bite your finger and not let go( not pain full but annoying). be careful holding the gecko, not for your health but the sake of the animal, most geckos are very fast and will go running out of your hands with no care of the height they will be falling.


Why are geckos tails fat?

Leopard geckos have fat tails because in the wild they may not eat for days and days. Whenever you feed you leopard gecko a samll portion of there meal goes to there tail. This is stored up nutrients for days when they may not eat. THis way a gecko can live from the nutrients in there tail. This does not mean you should stop feeding you gecko for days on end. Baby and juvenille geckos should be fed every day. However an adult gecko i find is perfectly comfortable eating a large meal every other day. ANd when i say large i mean 5 large crickets. My geckos are perfectly healthy and happy on this diet.
