Haha did the tail pop off on impact? Might explain why they are mostly tailess in the wild.

Also, do you know if gravid cresties show any size of eggs/being mated? I just got a female gargoyle and put her out on a loan for 2 days. Owner of the male did not see a mating but heard lots of chirping. Fingers crossed though!

Usually that first clutch of the year takes the longest to form. I only work with cresties though and they take 30-50 days to drop that first clutch, but after that they drop about every 30 days on the dot. I can easily feel the eggs forming especially in the last week, they feel like stones in their belly.

Oh and the tail did not drop on impact from the fall, it dropped off when I was rescuing him from the neighbors patio with a broom. His tail got caught in the bristles of the broom and he got spooked and shot it off.

She laid eggs for her previous owner, so I'm assuming this would be her second clutch of the year.
