hiya people im not sure what weight a adult gecko should be but i just weight my leopard geckos. my albino female is 50g and my blizzard female is nearly 100g would this be a good indication that the blizzard female is gravid? i havent actualy seen the male mating her but ive heard him vibrating his tail at night.
cheers stu

| 100g is massive. If she is gravid you should be able to see the outline of the eggs through her stomach (and she should look very fat, assuming she is ready to lay soon). |

yes thats what i was thinkin shes 96g! i was actualy amazed when i read it as my other female was 50g i was expecting 70g as she is big. the reason i weighed her is because she felt very heavy in my hand hopefuly she may lay soon
