How to Breed Leopard Geckos
Leopard geckos could be easy to breed for some, but difficult

for others. In this article, you will see the simplest way to breed
leopard geckos.
Tokek macan tutul bisa mudah berkembang biak bagi sebagian

orang, tetapi sulit bagi yang lain. Pada artikel ini, Anda akan
melihat cara paling sederhana untuk membiakkan leopard
Things you’ll need: Hal-hal yang Anda
1. Cage for Geckos (20 gallon perlukan:
for two, 10 gallon more for 1. Kandang Tokek (20 galon
each additional female) untuk dua ekor, 10 galon lebih
2. Laying box (A plastic untuk setiap tambahan betina)
container filled with damp 2. Kotak tempat telur (wadah
moss for the female to lay in.) plastik berisi lumut basah
3. Incubation Medium (usually untuk tempat telur betina.)
Perlite) 3. Media Inkubasi (biasanya
4. Lots of crickets dusted with Perlite)
calcium for egg growth 4. jangkrik yang ditaburi
5. Very small crickets for the kalsium untuk pertumbuhan
babies telur
5. Jangkrik sangat kecil untuk
Steps:
1. Get a male and female leopard gecko.
The males have hemipenal bulges below the vent whereas females do not. Males and females both have a V-
shaped row of scales above the vent but only the male’s scales here are hollow and produce wax. This wax is
for scent marking their territory.
2. Prepare a large cage for the male and female to live in together.
Geckos can be kept together without the need to separate them unless you see major aggression. It is
sometimes normal when first introducing a male and female for there to be a little squabbling, but this
usually stops within the first week. Breeding should occur within a week.
For a pair you will need at least a 20 gallon long tank. You may also choose to house one male with 4-5
females; add 10 gallons of space for each additional gecko. If you see major drama/fighting, separate the
pair. You’ll want to confirm they are not both males. If one male and one female, you can reintroduce them
again later.
3. Get the incubator ready for the eggs and provide a lay box.
You can use a plastic sandwich container with a lid for this purpose. Cut an entry hole on one side and fill it
with damp moss (This can be used as the moist hide too).
4. Ready the laying box to put in the cage.

Females dig to lay their eggs, so you will provide a place for them to dig. In about 4 to 5 weeks, the female
will lay her eggs. Normally, you will see her digging in the laying box and laying the eggs in pairs. It will be
easy to tell she has laid the eggs, particularly since she will be much thinner.
5. Place the eggs in the incubation medium.

Remove them from the laying box and be careful not to rotate or jiggle the eggs. After 24 hours of being laid,
the embryo inside attaches itself to the side wall of the egg. Rotating or jiggling this egg could cause the
embryo to come loose and drown inside, killing it. If you want girls, set the incubation temperature 80 to 85
degrees; if you want males, set the temperature 90 to 95 degrees, and if you want a mix, set the temperature
in the middle!
6. Observe the developing embryos.
After a few weeks you will be able to “candle” the eggs using a small flashlight. You don’t have to touch the
eggs, just take them into a dark room and shine the light as close to the shell as you can.
You should see pink inside with red blood vessels. The further along the eggs are, the more you will also see
the baby inside as a dark mass. After around 60 days, give or take depending on the incubation temperature,
the eggs should hatch.
7. Have tiny crickets readily available.

Babies will start eating insects within a day or two of being hatched.
