Bruise spots on my female Phelsuma Grandis?

[Samboozle]

I noticed it started on one area on the side but now I noticed it on her back. She got done laying 6 eggs within 2 months. I don't notice it on the male. Can anyone tell me what that is? I don't think it's a burn spot.

is she living alone?

 

[Samboozle]

is she living alone?

No. She's paired up with the male. I'm starting to see it on the male now. It may be a burn mark? It's a 25w Halogen bulb.

 

[Aimless]

is the bulb new? or are they fighting? I would separate them asap no matter the cause.

The bulb is probably 4 months old. I wasn't home for almost 3 days. I haven't seen them fight. I hope it's nothing serious.

nah, if your bulb was going to burn them I don't think it would have taken so long (unless you recently rearranged stuff in such a way that they're much closer).

I'd be much more inclined to think it looks like they're arguing. Day Geckos can be notorious for aggression. it's my understanding that once it starts, it's unlikely to stop and will probably escalate. however, my experience with Day Geckos is limited to just a few P. m. madagascariensis. I hope that someone who has kept more species and has more experience can answer more fully.
