    First Clutch Ever!!!!! But I have a question.....
    Hey guys and gals.... Here are pics of my first ever clutch. The pairing was Albino x Black Pewter 100% Het Albino. She laid 4 good eggs and 4 slugs. Not great, but not bad for her first clutch. My question is: One of the slugs is attached to the other eggs and I didn't want to try to hard to pull it off for fear of tearing a good egg. Should I just let it be, or should I try harder to pull that slug off? I fear that it will eventually rot and mold and affect the other eggs.

    I have heard of some people using the non flavored dental floss to seperate eggs definitely worth a shot you gotta get that slug out before it takes a good egg with it!!

    Good luck keep us updated on how it goes!
