Default I can't believe this.

I have no words, just a photo:



I bought a Microscalabotes bivittis pair at september hamm show, I put it in the viv and after a month the female killed the male, I don't know why. Today, after a while, I found two MICRO Microscalabotes bivittis climbing glass, I don't know where the eggs are, I wasn't able to find any broken egg shell, I don't know if the female was gravid when arrived at my house or not. The only thing I know is that I'm really really happy, enjoy

Congratulation on the little ones!

I have a lygodactylus female lay 3 clutches of eggs without male contact over a period of 2 months or so. I have also heard of females still laying viable eggs up to 6 months after. So lets hope for more eggs

On a side note I just had to see a picture of a full grown bivittis (very striking little gecko!), and in the process of finding that I noticed this link:
Lygodactylus bivittis | The Reptile Database

quote from there: A phylogenetic analysis by RÖLL et al. (2010) showed that Microscalabotes is nested within Lygodactylus and thus needs to be synonymized.

So you might wanna call those Lygodactylus bivittis
