Y'all I'm fucking shaking and sobbing.. Kiwi had a baby π
I've had Kiwi since she was barely bigger than this baby. Parthenogenesis (the ability to lay a fertilized egg without a mate) is extremely rare in crested geckos.
I know she laid eggs like 2 weeks ago, but eggs take 60-70 days to hatch, so she must've laid some a while ago that I wasn't aware of.
I absolutely cannot believe this
