Insect Direct Posted February 24, 2011 Report Share Posted February 24, 2011 one in another clutch was round and smaller than normal when dug up. this lot didnt look out of the ordinary until i checked them tonight (couple of weeks after going into the incubator). top right egg is laying flat.....

alanmin4304 Posted February 25, 2011 Report Share Posted February 25, 2011 What are they eggs of? The eggs generally get fatter as they get nearer hatching. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Insect Direct Posted February 25, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 25, 2011 Res. I have noticed eggs expand before but nothing like this. I candled them last night and all appear to have nice red veins. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
repto Posted February 25, 2011 Report Share Posted February 25, 2011 could be due the higher than normal atomospheric humidity we have had of late?They don`t look overly moist by what I can see from the pic?just don`t give them any more and make your mix a bit dryer than normal.I have seen eggs rounder than that(ones that never got dug up on laying and after alot of rain)also burst a couple once in my early years and drowned a heap of embryos once in a floating heated water incubator??

Insect Direct Posted February 25, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 25, 2011 wonder if it has to do with me not opening the container for over a week.. normally open atleast once a week but didnt bother with this lot. your right they dont look overly moist, the other container i setup at the same time was on the dry side. this lot is damper but not wet. if twin albino's pop out ill be ok with it i suppose Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
