First clutch!

    First clutch!
    The clutch has landed! 6 "perfect" eggs. Im actually not too sure because I could only candle two of the eggs because I'm going the maternal incubation route. They looked fine but I'm not trying to disturb her too much. There was also one roll out that i snuck back into her pile. The roll put didnt seem to have veins except at the bottom so i do not know what that means. The eggs temp roughly 86 and humidity is averaging 99-100% thanks to the coco husk. I'm so excited for this clutch right now!

    Could the one that rolled out be upside down? Watched someone candle their eggs and he said something along those lines , good luck with your first clutch! That's one beautiful momma <3<3

    Grats Seven! What did you pair her to? Those eggs look huge. Can't wait for the progression. :) I think one possibility with the veins is that the one side may have very small vein structure that could easily be missed by candling. As long as it's not a yellow or green hue inside the egg then go for it. Even so, incubate until proven otherwise or obvious.

    I'm actually not sure. I cant check anymore because I snuck it back in.

    I paired her to a toffino. I tried and candle another egg but it showed up just yellow but the bottom looked like it had some veins. She is a PB so I'll see what happens in a few days. The temps and humidity are perfect still which is great. Just another 60 days to wait q-q.

    Sweet. Keep us updated on how it goes. I'd like to try maternal incubation myself.

    Update on the eggs, all eggs are fertile and averaging temps of 84-88F. Humidity is fine, not really measuring it to
    be honest but all the eggs are doing fine. I do have one problem where the roll out keeps rolling out of the nest when the female goes to get water. It never dies or goes bad whenever it rolls out so it's more annoying if anything.
