They are incredible creatures, I’ve only had mine for 3 weeks and I can hand feed mine. Which from what I’ve heard is quite an accomplishment considering how shy they are.
We've hand fed 4 of our geckos and the last one is just very tiny still. The tiny ones are little crackheads though, the big girl is very calm to take out.

I want to breed nugget too, only problem I don’t know the gander and I need to fatten her up. (I think it’s a her)

Send a well lit photo of the spurs by the tail, can also usually see the testicles.

The bulge also gets more pronounced. How heavy is Nugget?

He isn’t to heavy I don’t think. I’m feeding him banana and grapes currently to get his weight up. I don’t think he has a bulge.image.jpg

What's the weight in grams?
Insects are the best way to add weight, and along with fruit should only be fed twice a week

Oh ok, he didn’t eat the crickets I tried feeding him a while ago. What other insects should I try? I can see if we have a scale.

It’s a little fuzzy. Any idea what her age is, they usually are hard to sex until I think 6 months to a year.
I’ve had mine for 4 years and thought she was a male until 2 years ago when I found eggs.
