Your First Crested Gecko Breeding Season: A Month-by-Month Plan
A beginner breeder plan for your first crested gecko season: readiness weights, cooldown, pairing, egg laying, incubation, and hatchling care, month by month.
TL;DR: Only breed a female that is at least 18 months old and holding a stable 35 grams or more. Age and weight matter more than the calendar. Q: What age and weight should a female crested gecko be before breeding? A: A female should be at least 18 months old and holding a stable weight of 35 grams or more, and many breeders wait for 40 grams. Age and weight both matter, a heavy but young female is still not ready. Breeding too early risks calcium depletion and egg binding.
