Hello,
A local Pet Store I go to has a female that just laid eggs a little ago, but, assuming she'll retain sperm, I need to know care of them and how to care for eggs. So, anyone with experience will help greatly! But, I'm going to read a ton about them.

Thanks,

Try www.geckoforums.net. Really useful site. As far as eggs are concerned, incubate between 80 and 95*F. 80-84 for females, 84-87 for a mix, 87-92 for males, above 92 for females again. Sex is determined within the first 25 days after laying, so you can raise the temperature to high 80's to produce some brighter colours, or lower it for darker colours without affecting sex after the first 3.5 weeks. I use moist vermiculite in airtight deli cups. The cups should be opened briefly once a week for air exchange. eggs take between 45 and 75 days to hatch, higher temps, faster hatching.
Hope that helps.
