Leopard gecko

The leopard gecko (spotted leopard gecko, Latin: Eublepharis macularius) is a lizard from the genus Eublepharis. Description: Body length with tail: from 23 to 28 cm The back is yellow, grey-yellow, the sides are light, almost white. There are small, irregularly shaped dark spots scattered across the top of the head, lips, back and tail. On the tail, two or three transverse brown rings are sometimes visible. Sometimes, the lizard's weight can exceed 100–120 grams (in particularly large, well-fed individuals). A pregnant female leopard gecko (Eublepharis leopardii) looks like this: a pair of growing eggs is visible through the white skin in her abdomen. As the day of laying approaches, the abdomen expands, sometimes feeling as if it's about to burst. Peculiarities: The first pair of eggs usually takes a long time to mature - about a month and a half, each subsequent pair - after 2 weeks. The female lays 2 eggs (rarely one) in one clutch, several such clutches per season (usually 10–20 eggs per year). The development cycle of an egg varies from person to person.
