Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

breeding question
How long after the first pair of eggs are laid should I expect the next pair? Also do you need to put the male in with the female for each pair of eggs or does one breeding session take care of it for the whole season. Thanks for any help.

For my geckos it takes about 20 days between the eggs..
The other question I don´t know.. I´ve had my male with the females the hole time.. But some people say that the females can restore the sperm, so..

Clutches can be spaced as little as two weeks or as long as 6 weeks. I hate it when it gets to the end of the season, I think they are done and switch to maintenance mode and find stray clutches!
The second question is tricky too. Yes, one mating CAN be enough for a complete season, but there is no guarantee that it will be. I try to keep my males with my females all breeding season for this reason.

On average my females will lay there eggs about every 14 days, sometimes up to 21+ days, but not very often. Like Steven said, towards the end of the season is usually when they are spaced out.
Female leopard geckos can retain sperm for up to a year. I house all of my leos singly except for a couple of female groups, I don't keep males and females together. I introduce females to the males enclosure once at the beginning of the season and once half way through the season (about 3-4 months in) for about 5-7 days at each introduction. I have been using this method for 10 years and have been very sucessful with it.
