    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

I recently ordered a gargoyle gecko from Glades Herp Farms and i paid for a baby. They sent me an adult female (which im not complaining about) and it turned out to be gravid. While she was still gravid she was eating CGD (she hasnt touched insects so i wont bother with it). A couple days ago she laid her eggs and im incubating them. Has anyone noticed any odd behavior after their females lay their eggs? Mine hasnt eaten as much CGD as she normally did since she laid eggs. Im not concerned about her weight, she still looks great. Any input is appreciated! thank you
 
Most of my girls slow down on eating for a few days after laying, but I do have 2 that prefer to pig out on crickets only after laying. All of my girl really clean their bowls of CGD/DGD for 1 week prior to laying.
 
I noticed my gargoyle stopped eating crickets and pinkies after laying her two eggs. It was around october though and the weather was getting colder so I assume the climate influenced her eating patterns.. I still noticed poop in the cage so i know she was eating some cgd.
 
As with Vinni, mine always would pig out just before they laid, then slow down drastically for a few days after. Once a week or so went by, everything seemed to go back to normal.
