    First clutch of the year!
    I just cut the eggs its day 58 and the results are:
    2 bumblebees
    2 spiders
    3 pastels
    2 normals
    I think that are good odds, don't u?
    My question is when they gonna get out of the egg? And should I keep them in the incubator or not?
    Thnx in advance!

    Pics or it didn't happen.

    Once they leave the egg, just keep them in a tub all together with moist paper towel. They can stay right there in the incubator until they have there first shed which should be about 8 to 10 days. Congrats

    I'm asking how long does it take from the first pip to fully hatch? And in this time should they stay in the incubator?

    I think those are pretty good odds. :)

    I cut my clutch on day 56, when the first hatchling pipped. That one came out of the egg within 5 hours. Another one came out the next day, and the last 4 all piled out on day 59.

    I'd say keep them in the incubator and mist the eggs lightly once or twice per day to keep the eggs moist and the edges of the cuts you made from getting hard. They should come out within the next few days.

    I agree ^^^^^. They will come out as soon as they absorb the yolk and then just transfer them to the moist paper towels, as mentioned above. Wait for them all to shed and then set them up idvidually. Nice odds !!! :gj::gj::gj:
