Growth and capacity
The life stages and when each begins, when a gecko is ready to breed and when it retires, and how much room your collection and incubator have.
Life stages
Every gecko hatches as a hatchling and grows through each stage on its own clock. Days here are active days: a paused collection or a locked gecko does not age.
| Stage | Female from day | Male from day |
|---|---|---|
| Juvenile | 2 | 2 |
| Subadult | 5 | 5 |
| Adult | 12 | 9 |
A gecko is ready to breed once it is an adult.
Retirement
Every gecko has its own retirement age, set when it hatches: a female at 84 to 90 days, a male at 93 to 99 days. A busy breeding life brings it in a little. You can also retire a gecko whenever you choose. A retired gecko stays in your collection.
Living spaces
Your collection starts with 5 living spaces. Your first hatch opens it to 10, and each enclosure rack adds 5 more.
The incubator
The incubator starts with 4 slots. Your first hatch opens it to 8, and each incubator tray adds 2 more. A clutch waits until there is room for all 2 of its eggs.
