    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....

What is the best medium to mark leopard gecko eggs with? I've read some people use sharpie but that's obviously super toxic and i'm not sure I want to be putting toxic chemicals on the shells of my little eggs.

Thought about a non toxic marker like crayola but i'm pretty sure those are water based and might "melt" away or soak into the egg?

Maybe some dark food coloring and a q-tip?

What do the veterans in the Leo biz use?
 
I'm a dork, I use an eyebrow pencil (sort of the consistency of a grease pencil).

My daughter left it here when she moved and my eyebrows are like hedges :) so I don't use one. You don't have to push hard to use it either and I write on the tubs with it as it wipes right off, but not until I want it to! I found the washable markers and such to not do well in humidity. They run and sometimes are all but illegible.
