Hey guys and gals!

woke up this morning to find i have a second clutch of eggs! yay!:D

they look waaaay better than the first lot (they moulded and died:main_no:) and i want to make sure these hatch out!

i have the eggs in a box of damp vermiculite now, is there anything else i can do to ensure they hatch??:D

please hep, i dont want to have to wait another 3 weeks for eggs:main_no:!

thanks in advance!

These look nice and healthy :)

Just keep temps steady and watch your humidity. That's all you can really do for the little eggies

hmmm i'm about 4 clutches into 3 first time breeders and i only just now got my first infertile egg. all others appear to be going strong. the only advice i could give is to maintain humidity and an airtight seal on the container the eggs are into retain moisture.

good luck and congrats.

thank you i shall bear that in mind!

i made sure that the vermicuite is damp (sprayed lightly) before placing the eggs in the box (cricket tub) do i need to spray it more at all? i think my last clutch failed because of too much moisture, how can i prevent that ?

In all honesty i have no clue what to do for vermiculite. i use perlite with Albeys 1 x .8 weight ratio (perlite x water). Eggs are still cookin and have plenty of moisture in there with them so something must be going good.

hmm the eggies seem to be dented :S please don't tell me that all is lost!?

I think it maybe that i need to change to a different incubation substrate that does not need much maintenance. any suggestions?
