		I dont know much on the Madagascar Giant Day Gecko's but like Gizmo said, if it is thier first clutch they could be bad and the next ones will be fine.
		I'm still not sure why I found these eggs stuck to leaves but my Geckos really look like the pmg, perhaps if these eggs are infertile they just drop them anywhere and they could have stuck or something.......anyway, I'm going to take some pics of the gecko's and the eggs and post them on here.
