My little Pumpkin has laid 3 clutches since New Years Eve (12/31/14 - 17 (only 5 have made it this long), 1/18/15 - 28 (one had no fertile circle inside but I kept it 2 weeks before I decided it was definitely not fertile) and on 2/5/15 she laid 32 more eggs). She is losing so much weight I am afraid if she does this again I will lose her. She eats like she is dying of starvation but still after this last clutch I was fearful of her laying another and not being able to support it and herself. She weighed 420g before hand and weighs over a pound when full of eggs (I haven't weighed her since she laid this clutch a few days ago but she looks so thin). I so worry about losing her as I have read stories...I hadn't planned on breeding them for a while but I walked out of the room for 2 seconds while they were both on the living room floor and when I returned he was already on her. I didn't want to hurt either of them so I didn't stop what was in progress. Anyways, is there a way to burst her weight. She eats her dubias like crazy, and eats her veggies and fruit I leave in her cage constantly, drinks plenty of water at bath time, and occasionally I give meal worms for a treat. She turns her head and closes her eyes at pinkies even though her previous owner claimed she ate them.
My second question is can I house the babies in a 50 gallon tank together? I have one and can set it up for them but I read somewhere that too much space stresses them. I have 64 eggs in incubation...I realize that they may need to be separated and I have to watch for aggression but I don't want to set up the big tank if it will be bad for them. Should I get a couple 20's or 10's instead? What is the best set up for hatchlings? I appreciate any advice. Thanks.

Mirage came out of brumation on April 26. He was doing great. On May 2 he started acting funny. We just redid his tank, and he keeps going into one of his hides. He just lays there. He shows no intrest in food. HELP!
is tape safe for fixing something in my leopard geckos hide?
Day 3 of brumation. It's a struggle. I really miss my little guy. 😔
