I have just got 4 Electric blue gecko`s (althought the males seem to have turned dark and staying that way, any suggestions?)
However one of the females seems fatter thaan the other and very terratorial, could she be pregnant, how can I tell?
Do you have all of them in the same enclosure ? Its very probable that it is gravid . If you pair up all the males with females they will all turn blue . Also they seem to really "blue" when its nice and hot .
Sometimes one female is just more dominant than the other, in my case the dominant one is fatter in general because she is territorial over food, and will sometimes even steal crickets out of the submissive one's mouth. But yes they always get real feisty right before they lay.
When I recieved my electric blues they had mites which had to be treated. that period of being treated and moved often stressed out my male and he stayed black throughout the whole ordeal. It seems to be stress induced. the female and him were together and it had no affect on his coloring
