Some of them also have a brownish tint to them. I sure hope she didnt lay 7 slugs.
So after some scrambling today to get things set up they are in the incubator now and im gonna see what happens.
How long should I wait to offer her a meal?
You can candle the eggs with a small flashlight to look for veins.Is it possible to post a pic of them?
Re: does she look gravid to you?
Just an update:...First off I appreciate the help in dealing with this but the female def layed 7 slugs. I am a bit disappointed for sure but I definitely learned alot through the process so hopefully this will help me the next time around.
Still hoping on 2 more big females this year to come thru for me.
They are still in the incubator just because I cant get myself to throw em out lol.

Trust me, once they start stinking you will throw them out!:O Sorry to hear about the slugs.

Sorry about the slugs... that sucks big time. :(
And on a side note, there's a reason why Markus Jayne's website is confusing - because they made a MAJOR typo!! I've been meaning to email them about this, but in the breeding section they mislabel the "pre-lay" shed as a "pre-ovulation" shed. Confused the heck out of me, until I figured out the mistake. :oops:
