Well, it's been a bit of a frustrating week or so. My first clutch of the year was due to hatch today. I had 2/7 eggs that started molding, and I caught it soon enough to stop the spread somewhat with fungal powder, but 3 eggs are looking poor, 2 look perfect. The 2 that had the bad mold (which I removed and cut to check what went wrong) appear to have quit developing for whatever reason probably a week before the mold started and had bad rotten egg smell inside. Who knows what went wrong, these things happen sometimes despite perfect incubation.
Today I cut the remaining 5 eggs expecting them to be ready to hatch. The 3 rough looking ones had weak veins, look a little behind in development, but are still alive for now. Crossing my fingers they pull through. The good looking 2 had really strong veins and looked like they should, basically ready to come out, so I expect them to be fine.
My thermostat malfunction while mom was gravid may be to blame, I'm really not sure. Hopefully the rest of the clutches turn out great. So far they are looking perfect.
