    Possibly, but it is stuck to the other eggs so
    I wouldn't risk trying to move it. We will see what happens!

    You might want to mark that egg and keep an eye on it. I have a female that I've had quite a few years that would give me a nice 8-9 egg clutch every year. For some reason though, only half of the eggs ever hatched. This happened over several years. One year (when I FINALLY got around to getting a decent high power flashlight that showed everything when I candled the eggs) I noticed that half of the eggs appeared to have the yolks on the top. I figured I'd try something out and cut the clutch apart and flipped the eggs that appeared to be upside down. That was the first year I got a 100% hatch rate from that female.

    I'm not saying that is what's happening here, but it might be something to keep an eye on and just note it in your records.

    We did mark it and will for sure keep an eye on it. This girl have us 12 eggs last year (one was a boob egg). The baby in the boob egg and one other egg didn't make it.

    We check on eggs once a week. The flashlight we have allows us to see everything in the egg so we will see what happens.

    Re: MK Morphs 2014 Breeding Season

    We have the first two babies out of the egg!

    All animals will be re-sexed after they shed.

    140101 Male Pastel, 75 grams (we actually watched this guy crawl out of the egg as we were camped in front of the incubator!)







    140102 Female Pastel, 76 grams






    We have a few more pippers and will update as they come out!
