Breeding Tokay Geckos

[SCReptiles]

I have decided I want to try breeding these guys. Anyone who has had success with them, please give me a few pointers. Thanks for the info.

Hey Chuck, I have a few eggs right now just waiting for them to hatch. They are egg gluers and good ones at that. So you would want them to lay the eggs on something that you could remove and incubate. Keep a close eye on them when they hatch, they will try and eat each other. I will post some pics when mine hatch out.

Everyone I know who has tokays leave the eggs in with the parents becuase the parents don't eat the eggs or hatchlings....

I have a pair and I think they have eggs(it's a long story why i think they have eggs and why I don't know for sure)

Tokays are good parents, protecting their eggs and young. The eggs are glued, so you can't remove them safely, and trying to remove whatever they've been glued to can result in you missing a finger up to the elbow :)
Leave the eggs be, the parents will tend to them. They 'herd' the babies when there is danger, and protect them for a few weeks as well. It's only when there are too many for the space that they have that parents try to chase them out of the nest to make room.
I haven't had tokays, but have experience with green-eyed geckos, Gekko stentor/smithii, which are the same as tokays but a bit milder in temperament (not much milder, but some). You will be amazed at how seriously the tokays take family responsibilites, they're awesome to watch.
