Default teratoscincus micropolis layed eggs now what?

This was completely unexpected. I was told she was a male when I bought her. Now what? Do I need to increase calcium and vitamins? Do I freeze the eggs to dispose of them?

I got her at my local pet store. I didn't really know what she was until I got her and started doing more research. I was very taken with her when I saw her. As far as the egg(only one) I froze it and tossed it. I was not expecting eggs because I was told she was a male. Now that I know she may lay more I'm looking into getting an incubator. I can not find any good caresheets on them tho so if anyone happens to know of one please pass it along.

Teratoscincus.... yes. microlepis..... no. I'm sure a more knowledgeable forum member can positively ID it on a spp. level. Great loking gecko, though. In nice shape, too!

I'm not an expert on this genus by any means, hover, my microlepis, if memory serves me, had finer scalation and a "supraocular shield" or more of a "visor" over the eyes. As stated, I could be wrong!
