Hi, I'm new to this forum and require a bit off advice! My leopard gecko has laid six eggs so far; I bought an incubator and set it to 80 degrees Fahrenheit (I read that this produces females) and have plastic containers with moist vermiculite in which the eggs are placed on. (I also keep a small jar of water in there to keep humidity levels at 80%). If anything sounds wrong to you please let me know as I have sourced my information online.
Anyway the first two eggs laid on 10th June (so its day 34)- the one feels quite heavy and plump and candles a nice pinky red, but the other has almost folded in half on itself when we candled it its not as pink but there's are definitely red parts to it (looks like blood vessels). It doesn't smell and it isn't mouldy.
Has anyone ever had a problem like this? Should I persevere? It is it deffo infertile?
Also some of the other eggs have slight dents in them- is this an issue? I've read putting small bits of sphagnum moss on them can rehydrate the eggs but its not done anything.
