I picked up a pair of adult Turners Geckos this Fall and have them in a 30 gallon tank. They are doing great, but roughly 2 weeks ago I noticed them digging. They dug out the area underneath their main hide, and then filled it all in again. Ever since then the male has stayed in the hide, not even coming out to eat. The female on the other hand has been eating voraciously! Yesterday I got curious, and moved the hide. After picking him up and moving him aside, I gently dug into the substrate, only to find TWO EGGS! I figured this might happen, and I don't have any idea how to care for them!
Ever since I found the eggs, the male has failed to return to the main hide. I am worried I messed things up by finding them and I really want them to hatch. I would love some tips from anyone who has experience with this subject.
Should I leave the eggs in the terrarium or move them to a separate container?
Is it normal for the male to stop eating?
How long will it take for the eggs to hatch?
Anyway, thanks for the help guys, greatly appreciated!
P.S. - They may be Bibrons... they were sold as Bibrons but I naturally assumed they were Turners since Bibrons are so rare.
