Egg is stuck to the lay box. What do I do?

[chachasushi]

She laid at the bottom of the box and it's stuck to the side. I now know that plastic will not do in the future as a lay box, but what do I do about the egg? Should I put the whole thing in the incubator as is? I can maybe use saran wrap as a "lid" for the box. I dunno. I don't want to lose the egg by ripping it from the box...

mine was too, just be gentile and pull it off theyr'e a bit sticky, but they are quite pliable, just dont rip it, but mine i worked side to side slowly and it pulled off just fine.

Using a spray bottle and spraying the place where the egg attaches to the side with warm water, letting it sit, and then pulling it (gently) off should do the trick. My first eggs this season were stuck like that and I got them off

 

[chachasushi]

YAY! It came out! Thanks so much!

 

[Shadraak]

should you scrub it all down like you do with snakes eggs? and clean it all really well? also after laying how long usually till they start feeding again?

 

[chachasushi]

I don't clean my eggs, I just leave them as is.

My girls go right back to eating like nothing happened.

 

[Shadraak]

not the eggs, the hide box they were layed in

I spray mine with a little healthy habitat and give it a good wipe down. Most of my girls eat really good right after laying.
