So happy for you gal!!! Beautiful babies....what morph is mom& dad? Im thinking the discolored ones might not hatch though but that's how it works. I lost 2 of mine last minute out of the 25. Not much you can do. But helps yeah looking forward to seeing full pics of them.

rusticreptiles, I wouldn't pick them up or handle them at all, let them be in the incubator undesturbed, believe me, I learned the hard way with my oldest girls eggs this year, I was often picking them up and checking them out and looking at them and candeling them, and well, the two good eggs that I got from her burst in my hand, and I watched the not all the way formed baby die, it was breathing but not 100% developed yet, and that happened twice to me, one was on day 32 and the other one made it to day 54 which is the one that was breathing, before it died. So try very very hard not to handle the eggs much. All I do now is look at them through the top of the incubator window, and sometimes open it to open the lid of the container to peek at the eggs and temps and that's it. I did candle them all within the first week after they were laid, and that's all I needed to know if they were fertile or not. Good luck with yrs, and hope you'll have cute little heads poking out soon.

Got any pics of your eggs? If not no big deal. Curious on coloration off the eggs you described. Thx wildlife

My eggs all sit on top of the aquarium screens of the parents. I put one 1/8th inch hole in one of the top corners. I used clay particle hatching material which is totally sterile. Then I use my finger to dig out small indents for each egg. Then I cover the egged with thick layer of moist moss. The moss acts as a catch to absorb drips from moisture from falling directly on the eggs. Also the moss naturally has tanic acid which kills mold growth from forming around or on the eggs. The only issue that comes from using the moss on top is brown spots form on egg. I never ever touch,candle or move the eggs. Any slight movement can drown them if they are rocked the least bit. Its always tough waiting but letting the eggs be is always best. Your eggs should hatch wildlife within the next week to 10 days max. A matter of time now..

Now more of my eggs look discolored though and many have the starburst shapes on them, some have 2 or 3.
