Breeding Question
I got a male albino leopard gecko when he was just a baby. Then when he was a juvenile, I got a similar sized female. They have happily been living in the same enclosure for about 6 months now. ( they are both ~1 year old)
Is it odd that they have not done any breeding or are they maybe too young (they are pretty much full size, and my male is now larger than the female)??
Thanks for the reply,
Whitney

I too am surprised they haven't bred. They are old enough,,,are you sure there male and female ?

Yes, I am positive they are male and female...the female was already big enough to tell when I bought her (and she was sold as a female), and the male has very clearly defined pores above his vent.

Well maybe they are just really good friends.  I had that going on with my blue tongues and then I separated them and reintroduced them about 6 months later and they bred in the first 20 minutes.

From my understanding of Leo's it more of a weight issue then a age issue. Try separating them like Lacey suggested, it couldn't hurt.

What are you temps and such in the tank. Seperating them is a good idea,,,try it for awhile, then put them back together,,change the tank around abit when you reintroduce them.
