Mystery eggs! Oh no!

[Reborn]

Well not compeletly oh no, it will be a neat little waiting game to see what pops out. Thing is no one stopped eating, no one showed any signs of being gravid. The trio of females were with my Striped Super snow bell albino male(with the cutest white feet!) for a mere hour? Not long as i cleaned out the cages and ran out of tubs. None of the females were ovulating so i figured itd be harmles hahaha well i was wrong. Someone thought they'd get a little "action". Prior to this my engima girl laid 2 eggs outside the moist hide but i really dont think it was her, she's been a ravious eater since! Im thinking it was either my TUG snow enigma het bell or my mack snow bell albino...Dunno. Anyone think they could tell if i took pics? Like i said no one showed any signs, all ate well, didnt seem to get wider nothing. This brings me to 8 eggs would have been 9 if one didnt go bad:/ oh well.

Ok, so just seeing if I have the question right. One of your females laid eggs and you're trying to figure out which one laid them right?

You didn't see that their bellies were bigger? Or check their tummies? I guess if you didn't see signs or whatever you wouldn't think to. I guess I'm weird I 'check' my guys weekly to make sure no stuck sheds, or anything else is wrong with them...but that's just me

Well if im expecting them to lay i do check but i didnt hear the male viberate his tail or any sudden movements as if the females were running away. Nothing. I did check my engima girl and shes expected any day again. SO its not her. Nopeha neither female got wider, neither put on more weight(a gram here or there nothing exessive) neither stopped eating, Neither wanted more food, neither licked at the calcium more. I do check stuck shed and all that reguarlly but like i said wasnt expecting this(specailly since it hasnt even been that long since they were with him)

Who had you bred last/laid last? You said your enigma gal? Any chance it could have retained a sperm plug this long?

How much prior to this did the enigma lay the eggs? If it was a few weeks, I'd say she's the likely candidate.

Separate the females and see who lays another clutch, then you have the probable female that laid this one. Unless they ALL lay clutches, which isn't too far of a stretch. An hour is a long time for leo luvn...

Otherwise, hope that you hatch out an enigma/non-albino from those eggs, then you'll know for sure.

Lol i said in the last post the enigma girl is gravid again. She still has eggs in her. I was expecting that its been about 2 weeks since she last laid. THOUGHT they were hers but unless she's a amazingly fast egg grower(haha) then its not her(obviously). Im really hoping it was my Tug engima but somehow i think it was the mack bell. Wont know 100% till they hatch. Cant say im expecting them all to lay but like you said pakinjak: a hour is a long time. Even tho the male hasnt ever bred before. Dunno if these eggs are duds they feel good so far. Epp really need to get busy on that hatchling rack! haha...

 

[Northstar Herp]

Ah, I didn't see the second post. Just to complicate things, I do have a female that lays every two weeks... just sayin'.

I think you may not even know after they hatch, right? If you hatch an enigma or a normal, then you'll know, but if you hatch an albino non-enigma then it could be either female and then will you ever know for sure???

mm i suppose i wouldnt 100% but if the other female starts showing signs too then i'll be able to know who these ones were from(well if its soon) I know its not my engima girl shes expected any day now. If its anything other then a mack bell or super bell then ill know it was my TUG enigma het bell. ASSUMING there fertile. It looks like one is definatly but the other ones still kinda squishy. I dunno Its a nice early christmas gift thats for sure. Now if my expected eggs from a differnt female hatch on christmas itll be greatXD
