Hi, I'm new! I have two skunk geckos, Oscar and Jane. They keep laying eggs and eating them...how do I save the eggs? They're stuck to the side of the tank, and I've been told that removing them is a big no no. The local vets have been no help. One even told me to bury the eggs in the sand - even though my geckso don't live in sand
Please help! Is there anything I can buy to keep them separate? I know they make separators for fish. I'd rather find a solution that doesn't involve buying another huge tank. Thanks.

Take a plastic cup and place it over the portion of the glass where the eggs are. Hold it in place with tape.

Maybe you are not feeding them enough....?...my white lines eat PLENTY of food.

If they do eat them, to 99% they are infertile. Are you sure, you have both sexes?

Once you have them sexed, (you could have two females who are competing and eating each others' eggs?) what I did was I put tons of paper towel tubes in the cage, and they tend to lay inside those, so I can just remove the tube and incubate if I need to. Corkbark works as well. Basically, just put loads of decorations in that are removable, but provide lots of "nooks and crannie" for them to want to lay.
You can also provide a shallow dish of calcium powder (make sure it has no phosphorus) for them to lick as it sounds like they want/need the extra nutrients.
Do you dust and gutload your feeder insects?
