'Keeping Australian Geckos' by Rob Porter.

Great value at around $15, and delves a little into breeding as well.

Think i might get Keeping Australian Geckos book.
Do you know anything on breeding geckos?

 

[Thyla]

what species do you hope to breed?

 

[Reptiles101]

I hope to breed Marbled Geckos, can you help me.

 

[Thyla]

I can't help you with Marbled geckos but many people on here should be able to. The recently released guide to Australian Geckos and Pygopods in Captivity by Danny Brown has Marbled gecko breeding information if you want to take this route.

Good luck

Who are some people who can help me?

I find the best way is to get a boy gecko and a girl gecko.

 

[Reptiles101]

I already have a male and female, what i want to know is how do i breed em.
is it just as easy as putting em together and they breed.

 

[Tipsylama]

do you 100% know they're M/F also its a bit late to breed now, but if you have a M/F and are looking after them well they should just breed themselves.

 

[Reptiles101]

Yes I'm 100% sure ones male and ones female. The male has two bulges at both sides of the base of tail, female has no such bulges.
And when is the breeding season?.

 

[NickGeee]

No expert but most lizards breed after winter, at spring

 

[Reptiles101]

Could someone post a picture of a female marbled gecko so i can see if i have a female.

how old are they

 

[Reptiles101]

at lest a year or 2 old, is there a specific age they need to be to breed?

 

[Chicken]

at lest a year or 2 old

If they're m/f then separate and introduce late august.
Turn temps down and reduce feeding in winter to encourage mating, when mated she will lay 2 eggs.
A simple google search will answer all your questions in detail...
