    Christie, I normally build the vermiculite up a bit more so that it comes in contact with those eggs that are stuck on the others and are suspended up in the air.

    Those eggs always dent before the rest even if the humidity level is at 100%.

    Its nothing to worry about at day 47....

    Thanks girls! :hug: I've been very lucky for all the support I've received here! I couldn't have done it otherise. :grouphug:

    Thanks for the tip Neil. I had probably could have covered them a bit more, but I worried about suffocating them. :oops:

    That's exactly what's happening with mine. I'm at 51 days and top ones look like rasins and lower are way plumper. I supported mine also with vermic. Almost here!

    Its getting close.. congrats.. keep us posted. I know your going crazy:rolleye2:

    Thanks, me either! :w00t: I leave in 2 days, and I should really start packing .... probably.

    Hawaii is a much needed break from life right now. This will be an awesome trip. I know you'll be having a great time too this week, so have a safe trip and take LOTS of pics. :clap: (then maybe pm me the link so I can find it when I get back.... :D )
