 OMG what is this crap!!?!?!

Im getting soo frustrated! If you read my last post youll know that ive been incubating one of my albinos eggs and both of my hypos. The hypo eggs looked GREAT when i found them. I mean, they were dried out, stuck to the side, and didnt have ANY dents.

Now i just checked the incubator and the hypo’s eggs are collapseing! I know they were fertile because they were clearly pink. I even started giving the leos more calcium incase that was the problem. The albino egg is still doing fine though.

Im baffeled! I dont know what im doing wrong here. Any one have an idea?

Hmm normally a fertile egg thats already in the incubator wouldnt just die like that. Hmm Tell me about your incubation method. Like temps, medium for incubation, water, and whatever else. Maybe it was too dry inside the container. Is the egg still candling pink?

I use 1.1 with peralite. And even add water in the future. I just had another baby hatch today with that.

Looks like my last egg is taking a turn for the worst. The hypo will be laying again soon though. I hope they will get better.

Im going to try remixing in a different container.

Hmm I am not really sure whats happening with your eggs. I use .8 to 1 ratio and it works just fine. I only use perlite and use moss in the laying boxes....I have tried researching your problems but not any real answers came up. My only guess is if the eggs were duds but then they did candle out pink....man... I really have no idea....but goodluck with your future eggs though.

Yeah it really sucks. I wish someone knew what was happening. They all looked so good when they were layed.

There are more coming soon so hopefuly we will have luck.
