We are new to having leopard geckos and we are looking to breed the one's we have by next year if anybody has any suggestions we are open to any help

Google "breeding leopard geckos" and read a lot of care sheets. Read the breeding sections in the standard leopard gecko care books. Think really carefully about whether you have the time, resources, money, caging, food and willingness to put down deformed babies if they occur. Think really carefully if you want to add more leopard geckos to an already flooded market.

So the market isn't doing so good right now?

There are more and more people breeding leopard geckos every year. If you go to a reptile show, you'll see people with tubs of tiny hatchlings (way too small to sell) for $15 each. I think it's possible to sell leopard geckos, and I have always sold out by springtime, but I don't sell nearly as much at shows as I used to and the prices are always being driven lower. If you do some googling and forum searching, you'll find plenty of thoughts posted about it.

Yeah it's just something new for us and just trying to figure out if it would be good for us and make sure we're doing things right

I'm not saying you shouldn't do it, unless you're hoping that you can make some money. I've written several articles for Gecko Time (Gecko Blog: Breeder interviews, photo contests, gecko care | GeckoTime.com) about breeding geckos on a small scale and selling geckos. You can go to the site and search to archives to find them.
