I got my first Lygodactylus williamsi egg the other day and I thought I'd share some pics. This thing is tiny, about the size of a dried up pea. Looks like I'll have to get a fruit fly culture going in the near future. There is a chance that there are more eggs in the enclosure but I haven't found them yet.

Very nice.
 
The last pic looks like it's beside a hunk of poo. I'm glad it's not. lol

Don't you breed leopard gecko's. You should post pics of how you keep them and where you keep the youngin's and such.
 
very cool! congratulations! how long have you been trying to breed these guys?
 
You'll get many more.........Those things lay eggs all over the place, all the time........Prolific little Geckos........

Thanks. I bought my first pair last spring but the female died about 2 months later from an internal parasite in her head. I bought two more females off of EricIvins a few months ago and they're doing great.

Yeah, that's a fake vine. ;)

Yes, I do breed leopard geckos but I'm trying to get out of it and move onto other species. After keeping and breeding them for 17 years it gets a little old. Maybe I'll start a thread about how I keep them in the future. Till then you can search for my past threads. There are a few on the subject.

Well that's good news!
 
from what I hear once you get one they won't stop! So congrats! You going to put anything over it so it doesn't get eaten or just leave it and hope the geckos do too? It's in a kinda awkward place I guess.
 
Thanks man. I would normally cover it with one of those really small deli cups until it hatches (worked with tokay, house and golden geckos when I bred them) but like you said it's in a really bad spot so I'll just have to keep an eye on it.
