Bad Photo quality but yeah... one of my crested gecko's laid me two perfect eggs. I'm hoping they're fert, kinda hard to tell with the flashlight I have and no real dark place to check. I'll be updating on their progress, and if they hatch baby gecko pictures =3 I'm hoping.
The copper coloring on them is cause she doesn't use her lay box and lays them in the repti-bark which can be a bit dusty.
These eggs are from Jax my Pattern-less BiColor red, father will be unknown if they hatch.
These are my first real eggs so I'm happy.
Day 2: No mold yet, still looking good. Going to try "candling" again them tomorrow.
Day: 5: Candled them again, the smaller egg is doing something and the larger egg has a cheerio. It's a fertile egg =D
Day 9: One egg has been tossed due to molding, the other egg (the larger) is starting to form. It's no longer pink. It's a Pink black mix with a little spot in the middle of a yellow. From here on it I'm just going to be venting the incubator till it... hopefully... hatches.

Be careful with the babies 8)
They should be on paper towels in a small enclosure for the first bit of their life.
I reccomend large critter keepers (The plastic containers), or even the medium size..
From my days in breeding I found the following troubles:
1) Baby geckos will taste test the substrate. This can lead to death if they swallow it 8( hence the paper towels.
2) Baby geckos sometimes have issues finding their food. Hence, the smaller container.
3) Baby geckos are so cute, they're likely to cause you to squee until someone's head explodes. There is no cure for this.
Best of luck with your babies!

-nods- yup, I've got critter keepers out the butt xD I've got 8 of them right now wasn't planning on eggs/babies quite yet but she had been bred before I got her at a repti expo a few months ago and I know they can retain sperm from the sire for up to a year so it isn't a sure thing but it is highly possible.
Thanks for your tips, I was planning on towels till they get up to 5g. My smallest is a 3g which I got from a local breeder, its doing awesome in its keeper, real picky on CGD though so I'm gonna order some peach flavored from Pangea.

Good job being a prepared mommy!
Sometimes they can be pretty picky. We used to mix in a smidge of mango baby food to entice them, then slowly removed the baby food as they got older. When adding baby food, it's wise to sprinkle a little calcium, or CGD onto the baby food. 8)
We used to breed cresties, leopards, gargoyles, and bearded dragons @_@
