Anyone else still getting eggs from their cresteds? Mine haven't slowed down at all yet (actually it's been their best two weeks of the year so far Shocked

)

I normally get a few eggs almost every month of the year but overall they usually start to slow right down about now but there's no signs of it yet.

Always with the eggs isn't it Scott Laughing

I got that one duff egg from my female a couple of months back but haven't found any more since Crying or Very sad

With a bit of advice from Paul though I am changing their tank over to a completely natural looking one with expanding foam background and "living" substrate. So maybe when I change it over I might find some eggs lying around.

I doubt you'll find many eggs in all that natural substrate but you will probably find some babies walking round eventually Laughing

Hopefully. Also I make sure to weigh them every 2 weeks and so I should be able to tell if any eggs have been dropped. I don't really mind either way if I get eggs and/or hatchlings in the new tank I just want to try and make it as natural as possible because it's a great way for them to live aswell as it looking good. Cool

Maybe I'll get a new female to add in with the pair too Wink

haha

I had a clutch from one of my females couple of weeks ago but I think that will be the last now. My other females haven't laid any for over two months.

We have recently laid Beardie eggs at work, one more clutch on the way, two members of staff are also incubating Beardies at the moment!
The first Leopard Gecko eggs of the season (?!?!) hatched yesterday, with 4 more to follow and 4 (yes, 4!) gravid females out of the 6 breeders we have there!
I tried to tell them it's winter...
