The 'FedEx v UPS' debate does seem to vary quite a bit based on location. Where I am, FedEx is -- in my opinion and experience -- the better and it...

I just saw this as well. Utterly tragic.

It sucks to have a problem clutch because you only get one chance/year/female. What were you using for a heating element and thermostat? How were...

Thank you, bcr229, for your response. The hatchlings stayed in the eggs for another 3–4 days. There was no tangled umbilical cord. Two of the...
