    I don't know if you'll be able to bring them back from that. My guess is that they are too dry by the looks of them. Is that hatchrite?

    You're not too sure if it's hatchrite or not?

    no, my boss/big brother gave it to me in a random bag and just told me what to do with it.

    They look very dry, as well as the substrate. I would add some more water, and I would also suggest wetting some paper towels (not to the point of dripping) and stretch them over the top of the container, then put the lid on. When my clutch started dimpling I did this and it brought them back in a few days. Are these definitely fertile eggs? What temp are you incubating at?

    Hmm weird. Well different mixes/types of verm and perlite have different water ratios. That could be one issue. If it was hatchrite I wouldn't be surprised that you are losing eggs. People have been losing eggs left and right on hatchrite this year and last.

    im incubating them at 89 degrees.

    i just did the paper towel thing.

    my boss told me to add water today so i did do that earlier.

    and to expect them at 60-65 days to come out

    i dont know if their definitly fertile. i dont know how to tell now, but when they were laid all the good ones had alot of thick veins.
