    So my leopard gecko just laid eggs they are hard, but connected. I wasn't expecting eggs so it was kind of a shock. I didn't even think the female was big enough. Do these eggs look healthy?

    We'd need pics. And if you didn't think she was big enough, she shouldn't be housed with a male. That's putting her body and her at a huge risk.

    And they have been together for over a year, they sleep next to each other under the same rock and have never had any problems.

    How old is the female? How much does she weigh?

    I wouldn't keep them in the same tank because the males can have quite a strong sex drive and he could over sex the female.

    The eggs sadly look infertile to me, they look yellowish, but it could just be the picture, itīs better to wait and see, you should separate them because since she is pregnant, the maleīs pressence will stress her and it could cause her to get egg bound
