monty.

Answer
Hi Monty
I have a couple of links of excellent pics that show the eggs inside the female
I am not sure if you have to be a member of this forum to view the pages but it The Best Gecko forum on the web and I have been a member since it started

Your female can lay her eggs anywhere from two to six weeks after mating

You will see pink eraser like dots inside her belly above the white eggs if she is developing the next egg follicles

It is important to have a container(I use my moist hides because they already have a moist substrate in them) for her to dig in and lay the eggs

Check out the forum-it's a really good one

Take Care
