~ Do you find that your geckos lay in one area/lay box every clutch, or do they change spots?
~ Do the geckos usually lay both eggs in exactly the same place, close to each other or in completely different areas?
~ Finally, what do you do if you can only find 1 out of 2 eggs. Do you leave it to incubate
in situ or do you just persevere with the rooting around?
The reason I ask is my vazimba laid again a couple of night ago. I've only just gotten round to digging them up, and it was laid at the opposite end of the tank (although very similar substrate conditions) and I could only find one of them. In the previous clutch she laid on the one shelf but not together (maybe 10cm or so away). I'm a little tentative about incubating
in situ as the hatchling could probably get behind the background in the tank or escape, in which case he's lost.
On the plus side, the first clutch are looking healthy and fertile. I wasn't able to candle them properly but there were definite veins.
Anyway, any experiences appreciated
