HI, I just joined this forum in order to see if I can get an answer to my question, I'm in Perth, WA and have seen quite a few geckos around the place. Similar to the one pictured. I feel bad at the moment because today I disturbed some bricks and accidentally killed a gecko. Luckily it's head was crushed so it would have died quickly. I saw another gecko previously, just before moving the bricks and it stayed awhile and then ran off. But then I discovered that there were also 4 or 5 eggs hidden inside a brick, so I assume it was the female I killed who was with the eggs. Two of the eggs were moved (two were crushed), another is undisturbed. My question is, will the other lizard come back to the eggs or since they have now been disturbed, will it desert them? Of course, I put the eggs back together again, but not sure if it will do any good. Or should I leave them in some leaves nearby, will the other one come looking for them? I feel bad about this, upsetting the cycle and killing one of them.
Thanks for replies
