i noticed people posted pictures of their geckos bellies showing where there eggs are, or when they start to ovulate. So i noticed my females tummy is hanging a little lower so i assumed she is ovulating ( i have not bred her) and she is digging in the humid box (maybe for eggs? maybe for fun) but when i tried looking at her stomach while holding her i can't see anything. i tried holding her up to a light, lights off with a flash light. it just seems her belly is so white that i can't see anything and not transparent. She JUST shed today. Anyone know any tricks?? or maybe there isn't anything there to see?

Sometimes there's nothing there to see and if your female is really fat, I think that sometimes there's a layer of fat that obscures everything. It helps a bit to bend them backwards (they don't really like this) rather than to just look.

I did see someone say about bending them back, and she was already clicking at me. haha so i just put her back. she just hit 50 grams and is 9 months old right now.
