are they okay?

Woke up this morning and found two freshly laid eggs. I know that both of the girls I have that are laying are producing viable eggs. However, I think that I had the humidity too high in the lay box and the eggs were a little misshaped. I am going to incubate just on the offhand chance that they are okay. Anyone have any thoughts on this, should I be concerned?

I don't see how the humidity can be too high for the eggs unless it's filled with water. The eggs are often misshapen when they're first laid because they're soft. Hopefully they will be fine; I don't see why not.

ok. thank you. this is my first season with having my geckos lay eggs and still have the newb anxiety about what is ok and what isnt.

well I checked them last night and they had gone flat and started to mold. win some, lose some I guess. the other two I have however, are close to hatching. super excited.

They went flat and started molding 5 days after they were laid? Is that normal for nonfertile eggs?

 

[acpart]

It can be.

When my female layed duds last year they molded after only a few days.
Hopefully your next batch will be good!

idk what happened with them. one of the other two eggs I have were laid by this female. she laid two last time and one went flat and the other is perfectly fine.
