They look good. How long have you had them? Did you hatch them out? How many seasons have you bred them for? Do you let them lay more than 8 eggs a season? I was just curious because a couple years back, I felt like I 'burnt out' my first female. I know the egg laying process takes a toll on these animals and was trying to see how many eggs other peoples geckos are producing.
Thanks
 
Hello,
Both of the animals were produced by me. The gecko in the first picture is only eight months old and has not produced any eggs. The gecko in the last picture produced eggs for the first time last year. She was 21 months old and produced 7 clutches, consisting of 12 eggs altogether. This female is on a 5 month resting period. I feel that a healthy female can easily produce 6 to 8 clutches a year with out ill effect. As long as the animal is fed well and given a significant resting period in between breeding seasons you should not have problems with it becoming ill. If you have any other questions please let me know.
Thanks,
