Enigma fertility

[Okee Reps]

After talking to a couple of breeders and the recent post from I think Legomygecko I was wondering. How many breeders got less then 2 fertile clutches from their Enigmas? I heard a lot of people say they only got 2 good eggs or 3 good eggs. Did anybody get 8 good eggs or better? Do they have a little problem breeding?

**I'm guessing Mike did (just a hunch)**

I only got one clutch out of that female Bell, and it was a good clutch. She was a first year breeder so that could play into it, but I know some first year breeders lay a good amount of clutches. I know Paul Allen of Bright Albino got about 10 or 11 clutches out of his female Enigma Het Bell (First year breeder).

We got 8 eggs and 8 babies, no infertiles.

First time females do not always do very well. I have had as little as 1 egg, and up to as many as 22 eggs laid by first time females. Each one is different.

I would not think it has anything to do with the morph, thats just the way the cricket crumbles.

I got 12 eggs from one enigma female last season...all fertile-6 of them were enigmas.
....and 6 from the other enigma female...all fertile as well-3 of them were enigmas.
