Gargoyle Gecko Lay Box Setup

Quick answer

A simple container of damp coco fibre or vermiculite, deep enough to dig in and placed in a low-traffic part of the enclosure, gives a gravid female a suitable place to lay without complications.

Medium
Damp coco fibre or vermiculite
Placement
Low-traffic area

Why it matters

Without a suitable digging site, a female may delay laying or lay in a less ideal spot, which can increase the risk of egg-related complications.

Maintenance

Keep the medium consistently damp and check it regularly once a female is showing signs of being gravid.
