    Egg question

    My second clutch of normalxpastel was cut last week, 2 are out, 1 is just sitting in his egg with his head out, and the other two are still in under the goop. I was wondering If I should remove them as they come out, or wait till they are all out of the egg, or if it matters at all. My last clutch they all kinda emerged at the same time, but it seems two of them are really taking their time. Just seeing what you guys do usually when this occurs.

    Re: Egg question

    It took about 3-5 days for my last one to decide to come out of the egg. Its completely normal. Sometimes they don't wanna come out. I would make sure you keep an eye on them and make sure that the ones that are still in the egg are fine.

    I removed my hatchlings as they came out and put them in deli cups. I hated seeing them all messy. I would think they would be uncomfortable lol.

    I usually take them out as they come out of the egg and put them in 6qt's in the rack on damp papertowels with a hide and waterbowl. Doesn't matter though. I just like to get them cleaned up, sexed and settled in...
