Q: What Does Female Aggression Toward Male Mean?
Posted By:

Blaise and Echo

I'm just curious about what this could mean. My female gecko bites at my male every time he gets near her. Is it just that female is dominant? Or is there something else to it?

If shes already gravid then shes'd not going to want the male to touch her. You only really need to put the male in with her once a season. If he harrasses her enough it will make her stop eating.
