One of my new klemmeri females is gravid! I think she laid infertiles last month, one of my younger females did, so I am hoping this months are fertile. Wish me luck!

Enjoy

ya these are yearling females, and Ive seen it happen in my rhacodactylus. I acually had a female through out a dud clutch for her first, then throw out over 10 fertile later that same season. She got an extra long break last winter.

I'm not superstitious at all, but if i were you I'd probably bite my lip until after i got a fertile clutch next time... then post when you're sure the news is good. Or shoot, after they hatch even - just to be safe :) Just bustin your chops!

Keep at it buddy, they're tough. Thats why there aren't a ton around.

i am having the same problem with my ornata pairs.
only dud eggs non good eggs.
a friend of my also having trouble with them and he has 3 pairs.
recently i bought Daygeckos In Captivity from Leann and Greg
and there is a discription about Phelsuma Ornata and they're readings about the enviroment. I guess i should try that. maybe i will have some luck at the end of this year.

ok well I decided to check on my other yearling female, and take her out.
I got her for free in a trade for the other 1.1, he threw her in without telling me. She has a sligh indentation in her back, this is why she was free. He said he could never sell a klemmeri like this, so I didnt mind taking her. She laid her first clutch of slugs last month, and today this is what she looks like. I have never seen an egg so big for a gecko. My usual, infertile, klemmeri eggs are much smaller. This is huge!!!

Its one egg, but it could be fertile due to it's size. I am so excited now.
