 Pregnat(gravid)?
hi i have a new med gecko and i think she might be pregnant? if she is shes not very far along i cuaght her from the wild and iv had he for 4 days. she eats and drinks. anyway how do i tell and when will i be able to see them. i have coconut bedding that i mist evey day or so and i dont thing that should hurt them. if she lays eggs will she dig and lay them or just put them on the surface? please help me i need to reaschreach alot before. also i dont know if this matters or not but shes in an 18 gallon tank with a big plant and a log and a rock thing. i also added a little boxy thing that has some moist coconut bedding ay the bottom and at this very moment shes in it. please help my dont want to give her up and i dont want the babies to die.

A picture would really help. If you caught her from the wild the most people will suggest letting her go. For her happiness. She’s not used to an enclosed area and would probably be happier in the wild where she belongs. She may partially bury the eggs but you will probably be able to see them. They’ll be small, just check around for them. A lot of people mistake intestines for eggs however, and considering that med. house geckos (if this is what you have) have very thin skin, then you can easily see most of their organs...I like to look at my med. geckos tummy all the time when she’s on the glass.
