 Marking eggs with nail polish?

I heard you can make the eggs with nail polish, is that true? It doesnt seem like it but I didnt think a sharpie would be very safe and I was wrong.

Yes, you can.... they will eventually shed it off. I think BoaBabe’s REKA just finally shed hers off from when she got her from a breeder!

Sharpies are safer because they don’t clog the pores.

 Marking eggs with nail polish?

I havnt done it. I was just wondering. Can you mark the babies with nail polish. I was just thinking that I could mark the base of their tails with a different color each and then write down on a piece of paper who is who. I am just trying to figure out how I am going to know who is who. I think I am going to keep the 1st hatched female but how and I going to remember who that is...lol...maybe I should just forget it and pick one out at the end. I still only have 1 completely out. And the second one just hasits head out. He is all sweaty and his eyes are closed and its kinda making me nervous. How long will they do that? It looks kinda sad. Hopefully I will have a surprise in the morning...lol

Walmart sells a pack with like 18 different colors. Most breeders have a pattern code that they use.
