I have a female crocodile gecko, there also called moorish geckos, and I was told if you put a male and female together you will get eggs if they are kept properly. They are very hard to sex though.

Yeah, I've bred them. It's easy.. Just keep a pair together and keep them well fed. They lay white hard shelled eggs which they burry in the substrate. Sand is suitable. You'll often see a little pile or disturbed area where they have been laid. They should be incubated dry in a deli on sand at 80-86F, and have to be retrieved with a paint brush and a small spoon. These eggs are very fragile, and I've broken more than I've hatched. Clutch size is usually two and they aren't always laid in the same spot.
you can leave them in situ, but unlike Bibrons and a few others adults which tolerate young, they will occasionally eat babies, so its best to grow them up separately.
