3 bad eggs. warning: graphic images (DUW)
Most of you already know that I am incubating a clutch of 7 eggs from Lucille.
Well out of the 7 eggs I have 4 remaining.
3 of them started to mould about 2 weeks ago so I was going to leave them in there but I decided today to go ahead and take them out and cut them open.
I took pics to share with you all.
Please remember that these pics were take for educational purposes only. I am very upset that I lost these eggs and don't need any unecessary comments or neg rep points.
;) Thanks.
These are graphic images.
All three eggs.

im sorry for the loss Meme, its odd to see them with out the "shell" around them. they still contain red veins though? is the mass inside solid?
Re: 3 bad eggs. warning: graphic images (DUW)
Aw that really sucks. How does that happen? Did the incubator go crazy at first?
They seemed like they had a chance, but then again I don't know. Hopefully someone with experience of many years know how bad eggs like this could have happened?

thanks Nick.
inside it wasn't hard like rock.
It was hardened more like a hardboiled egg.

I had 2 power outages in my area due to storms and on the second one my incubator dropped into the 70's so that may have caused it.
but I really don't know.

That is really sad, I feel for you for your loss. I would definitely be not okay for a while if that happens to my snakes eggs. (almost said my eggs, and that ain't happenin')
Re: 3 bad eggs. warning: graphic images (DUW)
I'm so sorry that you lost 3 of your eggs, although I'm pulling for the remaining 4.
Thanks for sharing the pics. I find them fascinating in a weird sorta way.
Re: 3 bad eggs. warning: graphic images (DUW)
Whoa.
Totally sad that you lost 3 eggs :(
Just sucks now to know that those eggs actually were fertile.
Kinda seems like by cuttin' the molded eggs your daaanged if you do, daaaanged if you don't.
Thanks for sharing the pics though :hug:

MeMe,
Sorry for your loss. It is always great to see someone use their loss for the educational benefit of others, and also to do a little bit of learning themselves. I'm sure the remaining eggs will be fine, and that this will be a valuable learning experience for future incubating. Keep your chin up, as it happens to everybody once in awhile.

Meme so sorry :( Not all eggs were meant to hatch. I have a buch of beardie eggs and a couple were going bad so I took them out for the benefit of the others. It's just the way it goes. Best of luck with the others, It makes them just that much more special :sunny:
