Why are you waiting till next year? They must be about 6 months old now as I hear they are hard to sex at young ages. Then you can breed them at about 10 months and they have a quick laying season. So you could probably breed them later this year, cool them and then breed them next year.

Maybe someone with more expirience can chime in.

I don't know how old the pete's specimens are but they can can be sexed at 3 month old with the spurs. I would follow Pete and would breed them only next year. If Pete bred them this automn, the female could still be gravid when the time will come to cool them so if they were mines,I would stay on the safe side and would wait.

They are about 5month old now(good guess DDReptile;-)!)....and i've planed to cool them around november till january and then start the first breeding season.
Since i'm not a professional breeder, i don't want to puch the females to hard and give them a long and healthy live.....even i can't wait:biggrin:.
It is like with all gecko species...it's not good for the female to produce eggs to early.
I was recommended to start to breed them after they've reached one year.
If anyone with breeding expirience got time, it would be very interesting to read your opinion and how you breed them. Thanks.

Since I´m a novice,,,,,,,how do one keep these geckos?
Like nephrurus? The same setup?

I felt a gut pain in my gut when I saw them,,,,,,this pain will cost me alot of money to cure.
