Well I took the geckos to the vet yesterday. The vet STILL cannot determine the sex of Merlin. I was told by the person I got Merlin from that it was a boy. Then both vets said Merlin was a female. NOW however, since I was told Merlin was female and the geckos had been quarantined, I had Merlin and Abby together for awhile now. Abby has eggs. That's why I took them both to the vet. I now have purchased yet another tank to separate the two (the one I had used for Merlin originally is used for crickets now for the chickens).
So Merlin has his/her own tank again and Abby is in the 20 gallon long. I have an egg laying box, still determining if I need to purchase an incubator or not because I don't know if they'll be fertilized eggs or not. I don't know how long she's had them, I think it's been a few weeks but not positive. He said if she's still hasn't laid in a couple more weeks bring her in for an ultrasound. So I'm praying she'll do well. She's been a picky eater the last week or so. Merlin is just now getting to eating again.
I want to know how long it will take for the eggs to hatch if they are fertilized and when I should separate the babies. This wasn't planned but usually this is how things go for any pregnancy no matter if it's human or not. Things happen. I'm just trying to do what I can to make Abby comfortable and see if they're fertilized eggs or not. Merlin never laid eggs so odds are Merlin is in fact a male.
